Marlow Lock Weir Exit
Address is taken from a point 355 yards away.
Marlow Lock Weir Exit is on the River Thames (below Oxford).
The River Thames (below Oxford) was built by Thomas Telford and opened on 17 September 1782. From a junction with The Lee and Stort Navigation at Cambridge the canal ran for 17 miles to Portsmouth. Expectations for coal traffic to Rochester were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. Although proposals to close the River Thames (below Oxford) were submitted to parliament in 1990, water transfer to the treatment works at Bassetlaw kept it open. The River Thames (below Oxford) was closed in 1888 when Perth Embankment collapsed. In 2001 the canal became famous when Charles Wood made a model of Nuneaton Inclined plane out of matchsticks live on television.

![Danger # 2. Looks like the sign means nothing? [[851072]] by Steve Fareham – 19 June 2008](https://s0.geograph.org.uk/photos/85/10/851076_91e4f7fa_120x120.jpg)




![Start of closed section of Thames Footpath, Gossmore Recreation Ground, Marlow, Bucks. When this photograph was taken in early November 2017 a section of the footpath, starting here on the edge of Gossmore Recreation Ground, was temporarily closed. However it could still be used to access the boat moorings by Pergola Park.

![Flooding near Marlow, January 2014 (1). The Thames flood-plain underwater. The view is west along Quarry Wood Road from a point almost underneath the Marlow by-pass bridge. The spire of Marlow parish church is visible to the right of centre. The road was quite passable, though the water level in the fields was no more than a few inches below road level.Looking down from higher ground it was clear that hundreds of acres of the Thames flood-plain were under water in the area around Temple, Bisham and Marlow - with the Berkshire side perhaps worse affected than Buckinghamshire.A shot taken by Shaun Ferguson [[1705506]] shows these fields (from the west) as they were in February 2010 - very much drier. Nigel Cox stood behind me - so to speak - to take a photo of the area as it is in summer: http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/489942This sequence continues with: http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3805969 by Stefan Czapski – 07 January 2014](https://s1.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/03/80/59/3805937_2be63b88_120x120.jpg)



![Flooding near Marlow, January 2014 (3). A shot taken seven minutes after [[3805937]] and in the meantime visibility had deteriorated - and my optics were getting damp. The Marlow-Cookham Dean road was quite passable, but from this shot it is pretty clear that there would be problems if the water were to rise even a few inches higher.Shot taken from the partial shelter of the bridge seen here: http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/489942The sequence continues with: [[3806969]] by Stefan Czapski – 07 January 2014](https://s3.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/03/80/59/3805979_4d7f587c_120x120.jpg)
