Bourne End
Bourne End is a town mainly in the parish of Wooburn, yet partially in the parish of Little Marlow, in Buckinghamshire, England. It is about five miles (8 km) south-east of High Wycombe as well as 3 miles (5 km) eastern of Marlow, near the boundary with Berkshire as well as near to where the River Wye clears right into the Thames. Bourne End exists between the M4 and also M40 motorways, and also preserves its train station on the Maidenhead to Marlow branch line. With rail and also road ease of access to London, it has ended up being a popular location for travelers to live. Every one of the mills along the Wye Valley have now been closed down and also destroyed, Jacksons Mill in Furlong Road being the last (in Bourne End) in the late 1980s. These have been replaced by residences, offices or industrial estates, which has actually caused the continuation of the town as an employment centre. Bourne End remains an unique settlement, although the continued house-building over the past century suggests it is intimidated by the apparent ribbon development, with to High Wycombe. In 1997, when the Regional Plan remained in preparation, the Locals Organizations of Bourne End as well as Wooburn successfully lobbied to quit Slate Field (the area which divides the two negotiations) being designated for real estate for the time being. Various other primitive land around the village looks likely to remain so, as it has been specified as Green Belt, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, a Site of Special Scientific Interest, or a combination of the 3. Partially, Bourne End is bordered by farmland. Somewhat further away, Cliveden and Hedsor overlook the village from greater ground to the south east. Bourne End sustains numerous businesses as well as services whilst still keeping a village-like ambience. There is a Community Centre in the centre of the town, with a large hall, feature areas as well as a bar, which is open for participant's use. It is, for several, taken into consideration the prime focus of town task. In the early 2000s, a Twinning Association was developed, and also ultimately Octeville-sur-Mer, a town on the north coastline of France, was selected to be its twin town. Constant events are held by participants of the association to promote and also enhance the connection between both negotiations.
