About

Aldbury and Wigginton ward encompasses two distinct historic villages set within the Chiltern Hills. The area is characterised by its rural landscape of woodland and chalk downland, with the Ridgeway national trail passing nearby. Aldbury features a large village green with a pond and stocks, overlooked by traditional brick and flint cottages. Wigginton is a smaller, linear settlement along a ridge, with a notable historic church. The ward's geography includes parts of the Ashridge Estate, a large area of ancient woodland and commons.

The local economy has strong connections to agriculture and land management, with a mix of working farms and equestrian facilities. The villages maintain active communities centred around their pubs, village halls, and primary school. The Grand Union Canal runs through the ward's northern section, featuring the historic Marsworth Locks and reservoirs, which are significant for both heritage and wildlife. This landscape provides a clear contrast to the more urban areas of the wider Dacorum borough.
