About

It includes the distinct communities of Chorleywood South, a suburban extension of the larger Chorleywood village, and Maple Cross, which sits closer to the M25 motorway. The Grand Union Canal forms a quiet, linear boundary to the north, offering a route for walking and cycling through the landscape.
