Maidenhead is a picturesque municipality situated on the banks of the Thames, in proximity to Windsor and Eton. Apart from the natural beauty of the river, Maidenhead also has several historical connections which make it a desirable destination.
Its proximity to London, only one day's travel away, made Maidenhead a popular location for those on the move.
Brunel's Great Western Railway facilitated a greater number of settlers to move to the attractive Thames-side location of Maidenhead and take the railway to London for their daily employment.
