Midsomer Murders & More

  • The earliest film – a silent comedy – made in the town in 1919

  • Numerous TV programmes including New Tricks, The Professionals, Young Morse, Line of Beauty, Cuckoo
  • The idyllic setting for Midwich Cuckoos

“Enjoyed our visit to this wonderful interactive museum where you are positively encouraged to touch things!”

“Visited Amersham museum yesterday – lovely place, provides many details on the history of the place. Plenty of cute cafes, pubs and shops around also… not difficult to find free parking nearby. ”

“A well-run, informative and interesting small museum on the main street. It’s mostly volunteer-run and they do a great job in keeping it and making you feel welcome…Check out the herb garden too.”

“Enjoyable film and television location guided walk around Amersham hosted by Amersham Museum – here are the Sun Houses on Highover Park and further up the hill is High & Over.”
