Great Kingshill is a small village in the parish of Hughenden in Buckinghamshire, England.
Local folklore suggests it was King John who provided the name; there is certainly evidence of King John granting the manor at Kingshill to Hugh de Gournay in 1213, although this same document states that the land was previously possessed by Geoffrey fitzPeter.
The settlement was discovered in Brand's Fee in Great Kingshill, and evidence suggests it was settled between the 11th and 16th centuries.
[4] Great Kingshill has a small local common, forming the heart of the village.
Great Kingshill school is geographically located in the neighbouring hamlet of Cryers Hill.
