Tylers Green is a village in Buckinghamshire, England, situated in the parish of Chepping Wycombe.

The name is derived from the large tiling industry that used to exist here. In ancient times, the village was known as Garrett or Gerrard Green. Today, the village is part of the Chiltern Hills and from here there are many pleasant walks through beech forest which once supplied the furniture industry in High Wycombe.

The village is adjoined on one side to Hazlemere and on the other to Penn. Indeed "Penn and Tylers Green" are often referred to as one. It centres around a large village green where an annual Fête is held. In one corner of the green there is a large duck pond. St Margaret's church was built in 1854 of flint and stone with a wooden bell chamber on top that was added in 1890.

In 2006 the woodland that separates the village from Totteridge, Micklefield and High Wycombe (Kingswood) was cordoned off by police to conduct a fingertip search for evidence linked to the 2006 transatlantic aircraft plot. The woodland remained cordoned off for four months before eventually being released in November 2006. [ [http://www.pennandtylersgreen.co.uk/global/news.asp Penn and Tylers Green News Website] ]
