Description The Cape Fish Inc. seafood restaurant, still generally known by local people as The Pheasant pub, its original name for generations, sits at a junction where the road leading into Chalfont St Giles crosses the busy A413 London Road. The Pheasant was first built here in the 16th century and it has seen many changes.

Description The first turning to the right on entering the High Street from Pheasant Hill leads to an extensive car park located behind the shops. Drivers who have failed to find free kerbside parking in the village streets make use of it.

Description The river Misbourne flows under the High Street and in the adjoining meadow behind the village pond it is bridged by this enormous sarcens stone which was discovered under the road bridge and was possibly part of a Roman road. The river is small now but in past centuries there was sufficient water to power six watermills in the eight miles before it reached the village.

Description The village pond is fed by the river Misbourne and is now contained by built up banks to prevent it flooding into the village as it did many years ago. The area is landscaped with a children's play area nearby.
