Many of us take pictures in the village throughout the year and some are shared (then lost!) in WhatsApp.

In order to celebrate the beauty and character of Askett and the surrounding area, we are collecting our favourite images across the year on this web site. Of course this does not replace Alan Strawn’s wonderful documentation of Askett residents and residences or the historical village records.

A photographer from the Chiltern Society will join us at our next AGM and help us review our gallery of ‘top pics’ from the year gone by. We also hope to create an Askett Calendar for 2025.

Please submit your photos to: photos@askettvillage.co.uk. Feel free to include a caption. We are grouping them under the five categories below.

Thank you to those who have submitted and uploaded so far. Enjoy!
