A short history of Marlow
Marlow is recorded in 1015 as Mere lafan, an Old English name for ground left once a pond had been drained. The Domesday Book gives the name as Merlaue. The manor had belonged to the Earls of Mercia before William the Conqueror granted it to his queen Matilda and Henry the First later passed it to his illegitimate son Robert de Melhent. The town grew beside the Thames at the point where traffic between Reading and High Wycombe crossed the river. It had a market by 1227, which gave rise to the name Chipping Marlow. A Member of Parliament sat for the town between 1301 and 1307. The Old Parsonage on St Peters Street dates from the 14th century. The potter Conrad Dressler ran the Medmenham Pottery at Marlow Common between 1897 and 1906. Marlow Bridge and Marlow Place are both Grade I listed, among 166 listed buildings near the centre.
