About the lecture:

The History of Marlow 1651 – 1803: War to War

After the turbulence of the Civil War, Marlow’s fortunes and development stepped up a pace as the Georgian building boom and major new industries transformed the town. Several larger than life individuals arrived from all directions to make their mark. But at the end of the period the country faced a serious new threat, this time from outside.

Our lecturer: Geoff Wood

Geoff has lived in Marlow since 1998 and has been interested in local history for almost that long.

He has taken lead responsibility for the Marlow Society’s involvement in heritage and local history for over 10 years and is currently a member of the society’s very active local history group, which carries out research, publishes articles and arranges talks on a variety of Marlow-based topics.

This talk has its origins in the Marlow Museum exhibition that Geoff and others worked on in 2019 called “The Story of Marlow”.
