Haddenham

Haddenham is one of the largest villages in England, and pre-dates the Doomsday book. The sign shows several of the items for which the village is famous: An Anglo-Saxon (there are several conflicting stories as to how the village was founded - one story says it was founded by A-S travellers from Haddenham in Cambridgeshire), the parish church and pond (where the Aylesbury ducks were bred), a whitchet/wychert wall (of which the village has a large number) and a glider (the No 1 Glider School was based here in the war).

Haddenham is also the home of St Tiggywinkles, the world famous wildlife hospital. It cares for ill and injured wild animals, 24 hours a day 365 days a year. It is best known for it’s care of hedgehogs; however it will help any injured wild animals, for example foxes, badgers and birds.
