Aylesbury Quakers

Heritage Open Day: Visit a meeting house in old Aylesbury dating back to the early 1700s. Enjoy a peaceful garden, once a Quaker burial ground, near the centre of town. Find out about Quakers and other users of the site. The Society of Friends (also called Quakers) was founded in the 1640s. In the late 1650s Quakers met in Weston Turville and in Rowsham. There are records of Quaker meetings in a house in Aylesbury in 1689.
The two cottages fronting on to the road date from the end of the 17th century. In 1704, the cottages and land behind them were legally transferred to Aylesbury Quakers.
