Maidenhead Union, St. Marks Maidenhead
Maidenhead Union, St. Marks Maidenhead
Originally the Cookham Workhouse, it was extended and renamed the Maidenhead Union in 1896. The words "Maidenhead Union" are carved in stone over the Board Room building erected at that time. A few years ago this was once more revealed; apparently the words had been covered over during the War in case this gave a clue to the town's name for invading Germans. The building now forms part of St Mark's Hospital, Maidenhead.
