Bourne End
Bourne End is a village mostly in the parish of Wooburn, but partly in the parish of Little Marlow, in Buckinghamshire, England. It is about five miles (8 km) south-east of High Wycombe and also three miles (5 km) east of Marlow, near the boundary with Berkshire and near to where the River Wye clears into the Thames. Bourne End exists in between the M4 and M40 motorways, as well as keeps its railway station on the Maidenhead to Marlow branch line. With rail and roadway ease of access to London, it has actually come to be a popular location for commuters to live. Every one of the mills along the Wye Valley have actually currently been closed down as well as knocked down, Jacksons Mill in Furlong Road being the last (in Bourne End) in the late 1980s. These have been changed by homes, workplaces or industrial estates, which has led to the continuation of the village as a work centre. Bourne End stays a distinct settlement, although the proceeded house-building over the past century suggests it is endangered by the apparent bow advancement, through to High Wycombe. In 1997, when the Local Plan remained in preparation, the Homeowners Associations of Bourne End as well as Wooburn successfully lobbied to quit Slate Field (the area which separates both negotiations) being designated for housing for the time being. Various other untaught land around the town looks most 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 mix of the 3. Partially, Bourne End is surrounded by farmland. Rather even more away, Cliveden as well as Hedsor neglect the town from higher ground to the south east. Bourne End sustains many organisations and also services whilst still preserving a village-like environment. There is a Community Centre in the centre of the village, with a big hall, function rooms as well as a bar, which is open for participant's usage. It is, for lots of, considered the prime focus of town activity. In the very early 2000s, a Twinning Association was developed, and consequently Octeville-sur-Mer, a community on the north coastline of France, was picked to be its twin town. Regular events are held by participants of the association to promote and also enhance the relationship in between the two negotiations.
