The Village of
Knowl Hill


The Village of Knowl Hill is located about four and a half miles west of Maidenhead. It is mainly located along the Bath Road (A4), 'Around the Hill', the  area to the South and the Cholesey Housing Estate to the North of the Bath Road. It is unequally divided between the Parishes of Hurley to the West together with a smaller portion in Wargrave to the East. The Parish Church of St Peters is from the mid 19th century and is located to the South of the Bath Road. The village was famous for its Star Brickworks which closed in about 1998, and is now a landfill site. The picture to left shows the Seven Stars Pub and that below shows St Peters
