Welcome to Greatmoor

Greatmoor is a small village located in the county of Buckinghamshire, England. The village is situated near the town of Aylesbury and is known for its beautiful countryside and peaceful surroundings. Greatmoor is a popular destination for tourists who are looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and enjoy a relaxing break in the countryside.

One of the main attractions in Greatmoor is the Greatmoor Energy from Waste (EfW) facility. The facility is a state-of-the-art waste management plant that converts non-recyclable waste into energy. The plant is capable of processing up to 300,000 tonnes of waste per year and generates enough electricity to power 36,000 homes. The facility is a great example of how modern technology can be used to reduce waste and generate clean energy.

Greatmoor is also home to a number of historic buildings and landmarks. One of the most notable is the St. Mary's Church, which dates back to the 12th century. The church is a beautiful example of Norman architecture and features a number of interesting features, including a 14th-century font and a 15th-century rood screen. Other notable landmarks in the village include the Greatmoor House, which was built in the 18th century, and the Greatmoor Farm, which dates back to the 16th century.
