Ellesborough
Ellesborough
is a
village
in
Buckinghamshire
,
England
. It is located at the foot of the
Chiltern Hills
, about two miles from
Wendover
. It is the location of the
Prime Minister's
country residence
Chequers
and is also home to racing driver
Jackie Stewart
. The village name is
Anglo Saxon
in origin, and means 'hill where asses are pastured'. In the
Domesday Book
of
1086
it was recorded as
Esenberge
. The
parish
church, dedicated to
St Peter
and
St Paul
, stands separate from the rest of the village, high on the hill overlooking the rest of Ellesborough. When the Prime Minister is in residence at Chequers, this would normally be the church where he or she would go for Sunday morning worship, however
Tony Blair
caused outrage locally by electing to go instead to a church in
Great Missenden
.
