Bourne End is a town mainly in the parish of Wooburn, however partly in the parish of Little Marlow, in Buckinghamshire, England. It has to do with 5 miles (8 km) south-east of High Wycombe as well as three miles (5 km) eastern of Marlow, near the boundary with Berkshire and also close to where the River Wye clears into the Thames. Bourne End exists between the M4 and also M40 motorways, and also maintains its train station on the Maidenhead to Marlow branch line. With rail and also roadway accessibility to London, it has come to be a prominent location for commuters to live. Every one of the mills along the Wye Valley have actually now been closed down and also demolished, Jacksons Mill in Furlong Road being the last (in Bourne End) in the late 1980s. These have actually been replaced by residences, offices or industrial estates, which has brought about the continuation of the village as an employment centre. Bourne End stays a distinctive negotiation, although the continued house-building over the past century suggests it is endangered by the evident bow development, through to High Wycombe. In 1997, when the Local Plan remained in prep work, the Locals Organizations of Bourne End as well as Wooburn efficiently lobbied to quit Slate Meadow (the area which separates both negotiations) being assigned for real estate for the time being. Other primitive land around the town looks most likely to continue to be 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 three. In parts, Bourne End is surrounded by farmland. Rather better away, Cliveden as well as Hedsor forget the town from greater ground to the south east. Bourne End sustains many businesses and also solutions whilst still keeping a village-like ambience. There is a Community Centre in the centre of the village, with a large hall, feature areas as well as a bar, which is open for participant's usage. It is, for several, considered the focal point of town activity. In the very early 2000s, a Twinning Association was developed, as well as subsequently Octeville-sur-Mer, a community on the north shore of France, was chosen to be its twin community. Regular events are held by members of the association to promote and improve the relationship in between the two negotiations.
