  • Marlow Railway Station, Isambard (guest) wrote 17 years ago:
    The line was supposed to continue on to Henley on Thames - now that would have been useful.
  • Côte Brasserie, Teresa wrote 17 years ago:

  • Marlow Railway Station, Dr Beeching (guest) wrote 17 years ago:
    Trains used to go to High Wycombe and beyond until the line from Bourne End to High Wycombe via Wooburn Green and Loudwater was closed in the 1960's.
  • Carvells, NeilF wrote 17 years ago:
    Items are often very over priced, with a pricing system that resembles the rolling of a dice - the same item can vary dramatically day to day when taken to the register to pay. Not unusual to find out of date stock as well.
  • The Chequers, Teresa wrote 17 years ago:
    A traditional style pub/restaurant with B & B rooms upstairs.
  • Marlow Brewery Site, Teresa wrote 17 years ago:
    Marlow rewery was Founded in 1798, they were acquired by Strong & Co soon after World War II. The brewery was closed in 1991, by which time it was owned by Whitbread, and production was transferred to Flowers. Production was then contracted out to McMullen before being transferred to Castle Eden. Sadly brewing under this brand ceased in about 1997.
  • Boots the Chemist, KeithRay wrote 18 years ago:
    Boot usedto be the Crown Inn, a coaching inn with a large yard behind. most of the yard is now an exxtension to the shop, though some survives as car park behind
  • Liston Hall, Teresa wrote 18 years ago:
    Liston Hall was first used as a Primitive Methodist Church in 1874 and was built at a cost of around £700. When the church joined forces with the Methodists in Spittal Street the building was bought by Mrs Forbes Liston who presented it to the people of Marlow as a public hall. The hall was used by a variety of occupants, ranging from a County Library to a Dance Hall, but in 1970 Marlow Community Association was formed and took over the management of the building. Under the control of an executive committee, ably supported by a team of enthusiastic volunteers, Liston Hall has developed over the years, improving and updating the facilities year on year. The main aim of the MCA is to bring together groups and individuals offering mutual support and friendship and provide them with the facilities to pursue that aim.
  • Liston Court, keith ray (guest) wrote 18 years ago:
    Liston Court was given to the town by the late Mrs Liston, who lived there. A very kind gift
  • Marlow Donkey, keith (guest) wrote 18 years ago:
    Named after the train that shuttled backwards and forwards between Marlow and Maidenhead
  • St Peter's Church, Teresa wrote 18 years ago:
    St Peter's Roman Catholic Church was built by the elder Pugin in 1845-8. This small gothic church was one of the first new Catholic churches to be built following emancipation. and it has been somewhat altered since then with the addition of a modern chapel.
  • Baroosh, KeithRay wrote 18 years ago:
    The coaching inn explains the large areas not built over behind the bank, which is where the coaching yard would have been. It is amazing such a large area of open land has survived to this day
  • Marlow Brewery Site, keith (guest) wrote 18 years ago:
    It used to be part of the grounds of Remnantz, Owen Weathered's house
  • The Deanery, Teresa wrote 18 years ago:
    The Old Parsonage and Deanery opposite Marlow Place is a beautiful combination of ancient houses at the top of Saint Peter's Street. The Parsonage incorporates stone windows of the 14th century and is, almost certainly, the oldest structure in Marlow. Part of its boundary wall is on the right of the main photo above.
  • Great Marlow School, Teresa wrote 18 years ago:
    One very famous former pupil: Sir Steve Redgrave, who won a gold medal at five consecutive Olympic Games from 1984 to 2000. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Redgrave
  • Marlow Railway Station, (guest) wrote 18 years ago:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marlow_railway_station: Marlow railway station serves the town of Marlow in Buckinghamshire, England. It is the terminus of a single-track branch line leaving the main Great Western Line at Maidenhead railway station. It is known locally as the Marlow Donkey, after the original locomotive based at Marlow station. North of Bourne End the line formerly connected to the main line through High Wycombe but when this service was cut the branch to Marlow was retained causing direct services between Marlow and Maidenhead to reverse at Bourne End. Historically the line was never intended to be a branch but was planned to extend westwards to Henley-on-Thames; however this never proved attractive enough to raise any finance.
