Knotty Green
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Knotty Green is a hamlet in the parish of Penn in Buckinghamshire, England. It is located in the Chiltern Hills and, over the years, has become a leafy and prosperous part of Beaconsfield. Knotty Green and Beaconsfield are however separated by a parish and district council boundary - Knotty Green is in Chiltern District whereas Beaconsfield is in South Bucks district.
The centre of the old hamlet is still identifiable at the junction of Penn Road and Forty Green Road where there remains a remnant of the old Green from whence the hamlet took part of its name. The name itself can be traced back to the 13th century.
A pub - The Red Lion - lies at the centre of the hamlet along with the home of Knotty Green Cricket Club and a children's playground.
Val Doonican is among the best-known of Knotty Green's rich and famous residents.
