THREE Buckinghamshire beauty spots are set to be transferred into the care of the charity, The Chiltern Society.

The areas, Marlow Common, Prestwood Nature Reserve and Brush Hill Nature Reserve, will be handed over in an effort to maintain sensitive and sustainable management of the reserves.

Cllr Katrina Wood, cabinet member for Environment at Wycombe District Council said: "I am delighted that the Chiltern Society will be taking over these nature reserves which are all extremely popular among local people and visitors to the county.

"By working closely together, we will ensure the sites remain open for the local community to enjoy for years to come."
