Marlow sits at a natural bend in the River Thames, positioned almost exactly halfway between High Wycombe and Maidenhead. It is defined visually by its tiered suspension bridge, which has connected the town to the village of Bisham since 1832, and the spire of All Saints Church that stands right at the water’s edge. Historically, it was a busy river port and a centre for lacemaking, though today the town’s layout revolves around the broad High Street that slopes down towards the Higginson Park meadows. Physically, it serves as a gateway to the Chiltern Hills, meaning the northern edges of the town quickly transition into steep, wooded valleys. While the town centre is compact and easy to navigate on foot, the bypass (the A404) provides a quick link to the M4 and M40, keeping the heavier transit traffic away from the Georgian core and the quiet, narrow residential streets that run parallel to the river.
