History of Apsley:
Apsley lies in a valley of the Chiltern Hills and became a 19th century mill village after the construction of the Grand Union Canal provided an efficient means of transporting goods. The mills specialised in paper-making, and the interesting history of the trade is now depicted in a canal side museum, while the town’s Victorian shops are home to modern businesses. Welcoming pubs, pleasant waterside walks and a marina are among its other attractions.
