Marlow Town Walk

Marlow Town Walk

Join us for this introductory walk to Marlow with guide Geoff Wood. It includes all the town’s highlights: an eccentric doctor, a famous Olympian, various royals, Templar knights, freemasons, and several famous writers. You’ll see two grade 1 listed structures, England’s second longest and most famous river, a fine suspension bridge, a raging weir and a golden postbox.

Numbers are limited, so pre-booking is required. Bookings close three days beforehand.
