Forty Green is a tiny hamlet in the very west of Buckinghamshire, sitting on a dead-end land north out of Bledlow village. The Cuttle Brook runs a hundred yards of so west of the hamlet, marking the border with Oxfordshire, across which is Henton: the two sides are bridged and linked only with two small footbridges and footpaths.

North of Forty Green, just as the lane fizzles out and becomes a footpath, a cycling route crosses the boundary and the top of the lane, on a path using the route of the old railway line which once linked Thame with Princes Risborough.
