About

Marlow West & North sits on the northern side of Marlow, with the River Thames marking much of its southern edge and Higginson Park running along the riverbank. The riverside is used for boating and rowing, and the stretch of water here is where Marlow Rowing Club and other clubs stage training and events. Housing in the ward ranges from terraces near the town centre to post-war and later suburban streets toward the north, with pockets of shops and cafés serving daily needs.

Transport links include the short single-track branch line that reaches Marlow railway station and road connections via the A404 toward High Wycombe and the M4. Community facilities include primary and secondary schools, neighbourhood playing fields and small business premises on the western approaches. Footpaths and cycle routes connect residential streets to the river and parkland, making the ward compact to move around on foot or by bike.
