Buckinghamshire, South Bucks District
Signs on the A4 Bath Road welcoming motorists to Buckinghamshire and to Taplow. Note the reference to the Paralympics - these had their roots in a gathering of WW2 veterans at Stoke Mandeville Hospital, Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire in 1948.

River Thames Path under Maidenhead
The Thames Path National Trail goes under Maidenhead Bridge, then right, right and right again to use the pavement over Maidenhead Bridge. It's clever as it means walkers don't have to cross the busy A4, Great West Road.

Skindles Hotel
The whole of this white building is the former Skindles Hotel, where the famous and infamous met for many years (Edward VII when Prince of Wales, Winston Churchill, Princess Margaret in her racy heyday, the Rolling Stones to name but a few) until it closed around the late 70s/early 80s and as a listed building has remained boarded since due to lack of interest. However serious plans are now being proposed - this could be one of the last pictures!!

Pavement over Maidenhead Bridge
The narrow pavement over Maidenhead Road Bridge. This is on the route of the Thames Path National Trail. The road is the A4, Great West Road, and this is most likely its narrowest point. The bridge was completed in 1777, but doesn't seem to have been widened since.
