About

Aylesbury Central forms the historic core of this county town, characterised by its mix of Georgian, Victorian, and modern architecture. The area is defined by the old market square, now a pedestrianised zone, and the network of streets radiating from it. Key civic buildings, including the County Hall and the Waterside Theatre, are situated here alongside retail and business premises. The Grand Union Canal runs along the eastern edge, where former wharves have been repurposed.

The area is a functional hub for administration, shopping, and civic events. The weekly market continues to operate in the square, a long-standing tradition. St. Mary's Church, with its distinctive spire, overlooks the town centre. A specific local feature is the concrete 'County Architect' buildings from the 1960s, which house many government departments and contribute to the area's architectural variety.
