    High Wycombe Facts – Did you know…

    1. Through the Mill
      Wycombe has a history of mills. As early as the 11th century there were 20 corn mills according to the Domesday Book. By the 1500’s woollen mills were involved in making cloth for clothing. In the 1600’s paper mills had become the major source of local employment.
    2. I Predict A Riot
      In 1830 papermill workers rioted as new-fangled machines were replacing local workers. The unrest was swiftly put down and many of the rioters sentenced and transported to Australia.
    3. Royal Academy
      In 1799 Lieutenant Colonel Gaspard Le Marchant held a meeting in the Antelope Inn where he founded a school for army officers. Starting in Wycombe the school would eventually become the Royal Military Academy, Sandhurst.
    4. Scholars
      Other ex-pupils that attended the two local grammar schools (John Hampden Grammar and Royal Grammar) include; TS Eliot, Jimmy Carr, Matt Dawson, Fergus Walsh, Ian Dury, Terry Pratchett, Heston Blumenthal, Howard Jones and Robin Day.
    5. Hell Raising
      The infamous Hellfire Club met at caves close to High Wycombe. The group, which included politicians and influential figures, allegedly held orgies and wild parties, organised by renowned party animal and drinker Sir Francis Dashwood.
    6. I Predict A Riot
      Dashwood later became Chancellor of the Exchequer. In his new role, he levied a tax on cider which led to national riots.
    7. Chair Raising
      High Wycombe has a proud history furniture making. It also has a curious history of building archways our of chairs. The first was built to mark the visit by Queen Victoria. In 1884, an arch made of 400 chairs heralded a visit from the Prince of Wales. In 2000 a chair archway was constructed as part of the millennium celebrations.
    8. Weighty Matters
      The town has another equally quirky tradition dating to the 1800’s. A weigh-in for the outgoing mayor and councillors. After being weighed, the results are called out to the assembled crowd. If they’ve gained weight (at the taxpayers’ expense) they’re jeered, if they’ve lost weight the crowd cheers.
