A lot can change in a short time – so imagine what can change in a very short time.

Whether it’s the development of technology, the clothes people wear, and even the geography of a county, a lot is constantly changing.

However, Buckinghamshire’s borders have not changed since 1995, when the village of Colnbrook was moved to Berkshire – although they certainly changed a lot before that date.

This does not mean, however, that the borders will not change any more.

The limit that affected Bucks began in 1844, when villages and parts of Bucks locations were moved to Oxfordshire or Northamptonshire.

The majority of the places Buckinghamshire lost went to Berkshire, especially in 1974, including the large town of Slough.

Other towns transferred to Berkshire include Eton and the suburban town of Langley.

Another town transferred from Bucks is Linslade, which is now in Central Bedfordshire.
