Blue Plaque for Chapel Arches Bridge
This blue plaque was erected to commemorate the origin of civic life in Maidenhead. The Chapel was founded in 1269 and the earliest-known grant of 'pontage' for repairing Maydenhith (Maidenhead) Bridge was made in 1297. In 1451 a Guild was established in the Chapel to collect money and use it for the maintenance of "the bridge of Maydenhith over the Thames". This was thought to mark the establishment of civic life in the town.
