On the bus from Aylesbury Bucks to Berkhamsted Herts we go through Tring. Lovely place - killer speed bumps when you're on a double decker though. Note the cyclist - you only see him once but due to stops and the route the bus takes (not the shortest) we actually overtook him 4 times. Apols for the long delay at one of the stops. Blame the old giffers getting on!

His parents established a zoological museum as compensation, and footed the bill for expeditions all over the world to seek out animals. Rothschild was 6.3 ft. tall and very shy, but he had his photograph taken riding on a giant turtle, and drove a carriage harnassed to 6 zebras to Buckingham Palace to prove that zebras could be tamed. Rothschild studied zoology at Magdalene College, Cambridge and worked for the family firm of NM Rothschild & Sons in London from 1889 to 1908.

Tring is a small market town and also a civil parish in the Chiltern Hills in Hertfordshire, England. Situated 30 miles (48 km) north-west of London and linked to London by the old Roman road of Akeman Street, by the modern A41, by the Grand Union Canal and by rail lines to Euston Station, Tring is now largely a commuter town in the London commuter belt.

Geography[link]
Tring is positioned in west Hertfordshire, adjacent to the Buckinghamshire border, at a low point in the Chiltern Hills known as the 'Tring Gap'. This has been used as a crossing point since ancient times, being at the junction of the Icknield Way and under the Romans Akeman Street, the major Roman road linking London to Cirencester. It is transected east and west by the ancient earthwork called Grim's Dyke.[2] It is located at the summit level of the Grand Union Canal and both the canal and railway pass through in deep cuttings. Tring railway cutting is 4 km (2.5 mi) long and an average of 12 m (39 ft) deep and is celebrated in a series of coloured lithographs by John Cooke Bourne showing its construction in the 1830s.[3]
The four Tring Reservoirs – Wilstone, Tringford, Startops End, and Marsworth – were built to supply water for the canal. These have been a national nature reserve since 1955, and identified as a Site of Special Scientific Interest since 1987.[4] Nearby, within the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty[5] that almost surrounds the town, is the Ashridge Estate, part of the National Trust and home to Ashridge Business School.
Tring railway station is about two miles (3 km) from the town. The town's bypass from 1973 until 1987 was the former A41(M) motorway now down graded to be part of the A41 trunk road.

History[link]
The town straddles the Roman road called Akeman Street, which runs through it as the High Street.
The Manor of Treunga is described in the Domesday survey of 1086.[2] In 1682 the mansion of Tring Park designed by Sir Christopher Wren was built for the owner Colonel Guy, Gentleman of the Privy Chamber to Charles II.[7] A later tenant was Lawrence Washington, great-grandfather of George Washington, first President of the USA.
In the late 19th century the estate became the home of the Rothschild family, whose influence on the town was considerable. Nathan Mayer Rothschild's son Lionel Walter Rothschild (2nd Lord Rothschild, 1868–1937) built a private zoological museum in Tring. This housed perhaps the largest collection of stuffed animals worldwide. As The Walter Rothschild Zoological Museum, it has been part of the Natural History Museum since 1937. In April 2007 the museum changed its name to the Natural History Museum at Tring in order to make people more aware of the museum's link to London's Natural History Museum.
Gerald Massey (1828–1907) – poet, literary critic, Egyptologist and Spiritualist – was born nearby at Gamnel Wharf, New Mill, on the Wendover Branch of the Grand Union Canal. Goldfield Mill is a converted windmill in Tring.
The 2nd Lord Rothschild also released the edible dormouse into Tring Park. He used to ride around the town in a zebra-drawn carriage[8] and the town's symbol has been the head of a zebra ever since.
Stanley Lief[9] (1890—1962) converted the stately home Champneys into a Nature Cure sanatorium which he ran in the 1930s for about 20 years.
The former livestock market in Tring, redeveloped in 2005, was believed to be the last remaining example of its type in the UK[citation needed]. It is now the home of weekly Friday Market and fortnightly Saturday farmers Market. Some of the former livestock pens have been retained. The old livestock market office is now the home of the Tring Local History Museum, which opened in September 2010.[10]
In 2008 Tring became a Transition Town with the support of Tring Town Council.
Sport[link]
Tring Sports Centre is in the grounds of Tring School.
Tring is the former home town of Premiership referee and 2003 FA Cup Final referee Graham Barber, now retired in Spain. It is also home to the retired FA and World Cup referee Graham Poll.
Tring is home to two football clubs, Tring Athletic and Tring Corinthians, both of which play in the Spartan South Midlands Football League, and to a youth football club, Tring Tornadoes, which field sides for boys and girls up to 16. It is also home to a rugby club, Tring Rugby Union Football Club, which won promotion to London Division One in 2008, Tring Hockey Club, with six mens and three ladies sides, and Tring Park Cricket Club, in the Home Counties Premier Cricket League.
Local economy[link]
There is a Tesco on London Road, a Co-op on Silk Mill Way[11] and a Marks & Spencer food store in Dolphin Square that opened on 9 October 2007.
Tring brewery has been operating in Tring since 1992.
Heygates Mill is a flour mill. Originally it was a windmill, and the company was run by William Mead. The windmill was demolished in 1910 to make way for a wheat storage silo. In those days, Mead lived on site, in a house next to the yard, and owned half the area taken by the mill of today. The remaining space was occupied by boat-builders, Bushell Brothers, who built narrowboats for the canal.
The Heygate family took over Mead’s business in 1945, and today mills 100,000 tons of wheat a year, resulting in 76,000 tons of flour. This is mainly bakers' flour, but there is also a commitment to wholemeal digestive for biscuits, bulk outlets, and a large output of 1.5 kg bags from the pre-packed flour plant.
As in the days of Tring windmill, only two men operate the system – but in those days they milled half a ton per hour, and now, with a computerised installation, more than 12 tons an hour are produced.
Heygate’s Tring mill has 80 employees, and 16 trucks delivering throughout the south of England.
Pendley Manor a hotel, conference and arts centre is situated about a mile south of the town, near the railway station.
