  • Lca 26.1 Thames Floodplain
    LCA 26.1 THAMES FLOODPLAIN LCA in Context LCA 26.1 THAMES FLOODPLAIN KEY CHARACTERISTICS • A flat, low lying floodplain, with very slight local topographic variation, underlain by a mix of alluvium, head and gravel formations, with free draining soils. • Fields of arable farmland pasture and rough grazing are divided by wooden post and rail fencing and hedgerows. • The River Thames runs along the southern boundary. Fields near the river are liable to flooding and there are areas of water meadow. • Willow pollards along the Thames and scattered or clumped trees along field boundaries. Woodland cover is sparse. • Varied ecology with gravel-pit lakes at Spade Oak/ Little Marlow and SSSIs including wet woodland and wet meadows. • The town of Marlow has a historic core and small villages such as Little Marlow and Medmenham have a historic character. More recent residential development at Bourne End and on the edges of Marlow. • A mixed field pattern with enclosures from irregular pre 18th century (regular, irregular and co-axial) though regular parliamentary enclosures to 20th century extended fields and horse paddocks. • A range of historic and archaeological features, including parkland at Fawley Court and Harleyford Manor, Medmenham Manor, Neolitihic and Bronze Age finds at Low Grounds and historic locks. • Cut by the busy A4155 and the A404 with rural roads leading down to the Thames and up the valley sides to the north. • The low-lying, flat and open landscape allows for some long views and panoramic vistas particularly north towards the higher sloping topography of the lower dip slope. • Some pockets of tranquillity and calm associated with areas of water and parkland, away from roads and settlement.
