More about this scene

In front of the church is the County Museum; nearer the camera, behind the 'No Waiting' sign, is one of Aylesbury's best town houses, with arched sash windows to the ground floor. The brick front dates from 1739, and is a re-fronting of a mid 16th-century timber-framed house by Thomas Hickman, a native of Aylesbiry born in 1695. He founded the Thomas Hickman charity, which built almshouses; it is an active housing charity still, buying and refurbishing houses and cottages in the old town for rent.
