HISTORY

There was no distinction made between the three separate villages called Chalfont during the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle in 949. The entire area was called Ceadeles funtan, which is Anglo-Saxon for Caedele's Fountain. They were separated in 1237 with the suffix St Peter taken from the dedication of the church village.

Today, partly in thanks to its proximity to the Gerrards Cross railway station, Chalfont St Peter is one of the largest villages in the UK. Very little historic architecture remains with the village centre dominated by modern buildings and urbanisation.
