The Village of Hurley is located on the banks of the River Thames between Marlow and Henley. It is mentioned in the Saxon Chronicles and was originally home to a monastic priory located near to the river. One of the oldest hostelries in Britain is the ye Old Bell Inn, one of the oldest Pubs in Britain dating from the twelfth century. Also in the High Street is the Village Hall which is only twenty years old, having being rebuilt after a fire destroyed it. The Village is totally within the Civil Parish of Hurley parish. The Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin is part of the Priory Church dating from the twelfth century and is also located nearby on the High Street
