Bourne End
Bourne End is a village mainly in the parish of Wooburn, yet partially in the parish of Little Marlow, in Buckinghamshire, England. It has to do with five miles (8 kilometres) south-east of High Wycombe and also three miles (5 kilometres) east of Marlow, near the boundary with Berkshire as well as close to where the River Wye empties right into the Thames. Bourne End lies between the M4 as well as M40 motorways, as well as keeps its railway station on the Maidenhead to Marlow branch line. With rail and also roadway availability to London, it has become a preferred location for travelers to live. All of the mills along the Wye Valley have actually currently been closed down and also destroyed, Jacksons Mill in Furlong Road being the last (in Bourne End) in the late 1980s. These have actually been replaced by residences, workplaces or industrial estates, which has actually brought about the extension of the village as a work centre. Bourne End stays an unique negotiation, although the continued house-building over the past century means it is intimidated by the obvious ribbon development, through to High Wycombe. In 1997, when the Neighborhood Plan was in preparation, the Residents Associations of Bourne End and Wooburn effectively lobbied to stop Slate Field (the area which separates the two negotiations) being assigned for housing for the time being. Various other undeveloped land around the town looks likely to stay so, as it has been defined 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. Rather better away, Cliveden and Hedsor forget the village from higher ground to the south east. Bourne End maintains lots of services as well as services whilst still keeping a village-like atmosphere. There is a Community Centre in the centre of the town, with a large hall, function areas and a bar, which is open for participant's usage. It is, for numerous, considered the focal point of village activity. In the early 2000s, a Twinning Association was developed, and also subsequently Octeville-sur-Mer, a community on the north coast of France, was picked to be its twin community. Frequent events are held by participants of the organization to foster and also boost the relationship between both settlements.
