Widmer End

Widmer End

Widmer End is a hamlet in the parish of Hughenden, in Buckinghamshire, England.

Widmer End has expanded significantly over the years, particularly inside the "George's Hill triangle" which adjoins Hazlemere. The centre of the old village is around a road junction overlooked by the Royal Standard public house.

A short distance to the south-west of Widmer End is the hamlet of Four Ashes, and Cryers Hill is to the west.

Author and former local girl Kitty Aldridge captures the 1960s expansion of Widmer End in her 2007 novel "Cryers Hill".
