Marlow – 6 Quirky Facts
- Knights Templar
One of the most secretive and controversial organisations, the Knights Templar were originally created to protect pilgrims on route to the holy land. They have also been linked with the search for the Holy Grail, parodied by Monty Python and were responsible for the first system of banking in the west. But did you know that they were also responsible for the first bridge in Marlow. Members of their order set up a base in Marlow as it gave them good access to London, and they built the bridge to shorten routes to a nearby manor owned by the Knights Hospitallers. - Famous Faces
Marlow has had a number of celebrity residents; Robbie Williams (singer), Heston Blumenthal (chef), Bruno Senna (F1 driver), Jim Capaldi (musician), Chris Evans (broadcaster), David Seamen (footballer), Matt Dawson (rugby player, broadcaster), Andrew Strauss (cricketer), Tom Kerridge (chef) and Sir Steve Redgrave (rower). - Write On
The town is also famed for the number of writers that have lived there. Jerome K Jerome, TS Eliot, Percy Bysshe Shelley, Mary Shelley, Thomas Love Peacock, Susanna Beard have all lived and worked in Marlow. - Just Marlow
The town had been called Chipping Marlow (the prefix ‘Chipping’ meant a town with a market) and Great Marlow before simplifying its name. There are also the nearby hamlets of Little Marlow and Marlow Bottom (stop sniggering at the back!). The name Marlow derives from ‘Mere lafan’ which means “Land left after the draining of a pond”. - Good Place, Great Grub
With residents such as Tom Kerridge and Hester Blumenthal it’s little surprise that Marlow has no less than 3 restaurants that feature in the Michelin Guide. The Hand And Flowers is Tom Kerridge’s flagship restaurant and has 2 Michelin stars, The Coach is also owned by Wiltshire born Kerridge and has 1 star, the third is Sindhu, owned by Atul Kochhar and overlooks the river. - Bridge of Size
Marlow has had a number of bridges over the ages. The first constructed by the Knights Templar in 1309, a stronger wooden construction was made in built in 1530 but was destroyed by the New Model Army during the Civil War in 1642. The next bridge (also wooden) wasn’t completed until 1789. The current suspension bridge was designed by William Clark in 1829. Clark built a larger scale version of the same design over the River Danube in Budapest.

Marlow featured in both the Doomsday Book and Magna Britannica and was home to orders of both the Knights Templar and Knights Hospitaller. There are both a Little Marlow and Marlow Bottom, and the town’s beautiful bridge gave its design to the large scale Széchenyi Chain Bridge in Budapest.
