Wexham is a civil parish in the county of Buckinghamshire in southern England. It is on the boundary of the unitary authority of Slough, its post town. Wexham Park Hospital is a large hospital on the parish border and Burnham Beeches, a forest takes in small parts of its northern land. ==History== The parish originally covered a relatively small (1.2 square miles) according to the 1881 and 1891 censuses. It was almost doubled in 1934 by taking in and about 1,000 people from the dissolved Langley Marish parish, a very long strip parish part of which was taken in by Gerrards Cross almost four miles to the north. Wexham civil parish was divided under the Local Government Act 1972, with the southern part becoming part of Slough and the northern part becoming part of the present district. The northern part now constitutes the civil parish of Wexham, with the southern part being a parish called Wexham Court. Wexham Court has a parish council with 11 members. The parish and some additional unparished territory form the current (adjustable) three-member Slough Borough Council ward of Wexham Lea. The civil parish of Wexham includes in order of number of inhabitants: George Green, Middlegreen, and Wexham Street. It has protected green spaces comprising woodland, Langley Park and Black Park Country Park. The village has a 12th-century parish church and the 16th century Wexham Court. ==Demography== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wexham」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
