Paley Street is a small village in the civil parishes of White Waltham and Bray, in the Windsor and Maidenhead district, in the ceremonial county of Berkshire. It is situated about 4miles south of Maidenhead and 6miles west of Windsor. By the later medieval period, 'street' was often used to describe straggling villages in areas of late woodland clearance. Paley Street is one such example.[1]
Paley Street had two pubs; The Bridge House and The Royal Oak, the latter being a Michelin starred[2] gastro pub formerly owned by TV personality Michael Parkinson.[3] The pub closed during the Covid-19 pandemic and was subsequently demolished.[4] A new restaurant is due to be erected on the site.[5]
