  • Shiplake and the Banks of the Thames
    Shiplake and the banks of the Thames Introduction The walk takes us from Shiplake (strictly speaking Shiplake Cross), through Lower Shiplake, along the banks of the Thames as far as Shiplake College and then back to the start. Key points are numbered on the map and correspond to the numbered sections below. Shiplake is a two-village parish. The oldest part is the area known as the village of Shiplake Cross. It is close to the parish church of St. Peter and Paul, Shiplake College (formerly Shiplake Court and farm), the local primary school and the Plowden Arms pub. The newer part, near the river and the station, is Lower Shiplake which is the "commercial centre", with all the shops, a post office etc. The name Shiplake most likely stems from 'stream where sheep are washed‘ (sheeplake) but it has also been suggested that it could be named after the final resting place of a Viking ship (ship loss) as the river was too shallow to navigate above Shiplake. 1) Shiplake Memorial Hall and Institute Shiplake Memorial Hall was built in 1925-6 as the gift of the Mardon family in memory of their son killed in the First World War. It was prominently supported by the Thames Lodge of the Freemasons. It was used as a temporary classroom for evacuees from London during World War Two, as the local primary school was not big enough. In 2013 a complete refurbishment and expansion was undertaken costing £450,000 (almost the same as it cost to build the original). At the western end of Memorial Avenue is a primary school, originally built in 1847 but replaced in 1963 and extended since then.

This book cannot be expected to please everybody, and it makes no attempt to conciliate those who prefer sentiment to truth, or who allow their reading of historical events to be distorted by present-day controversies, whether ecclesiastical or political. In that respect it tries to live up to the dictum of Samuel Butler that 'he excels most who hits the golden mean most exactly in the middle'.
