​
Please view the above grass cutting map to identify the areas which WPC are responsible for – everything else is either Buckinghamshire Council or the land owner, such as Fairhive.
WPC are not responsible for hedges except in our open spaces, by the gates on Aylesbury Road and up by the Beeches on Tring Rd. Hedges are normally the responsibility of the landowner. WPC have the authority to issue Hedge Enforcement Letters.
