Flower Delivery to Waltham St Lawrence — A Small Village in Berkshire


Waltham St Lawrence is a rural village and civil parish located in the county of Berkshire in South East England. The villages of Hurst and Twyford surround it around the west side, while the villages of Maidenhead and White Waltham border it around the east. It has a population of around 1,500 people living in 550 households and contains the hamlets of Shurlock Row and West End.

Waltham St Lawrence might not look like it, but it actually has deep connections with the printing industry. It is the birthplace as well as the burial place of author John Newbery, who published “A Pretty Little Pocket-Book”, the first book that was specially written for children. It was also the location of Golden Cockerel Press, which was founded in the village in 1920.

What's the History of Waltham St Lawrence?

The name “Waltham” is said to come from “Wealt” and “Ham” which, in Anglo-Saxon, mean “'dilapidated homes”. “St Lawrence” was derived from the name of the saint to whom the parish church is dedicated. Despite the Anglo-Saxon origin of its name, the village is believed to have been settled even during the Roman times. Roman coins have been found in the site, and there is evidence that a Roman temple used to exist in the area.

The village started appearing in historical documents in 1006, when it was sold by Ethelred the Unready. Later on, it was bestowed to the bishops of Winchester, who eventually purchased it from the King and made it their own. Over the years, the manor was passed on from one owner to another, until it came into the possession of the Neville family.

What to Expect from Modern Waltham St Lawrence
Waltham St Lawrence has retained its vintage charm and peaceful atmosphere, making it a great choice if you want to have a relaxing weekend away from the city. While you're in the village, you can visit the Church of St. Lawrence, which is believed to have been built before 1189, although it has been rebuilt and remodelled over the centuries. The church is a must-see not just because of its age and historical value but also because of its interesting architecture (which is a mix of Norman, Decorated, and Early English styles) and its eye-catching stained glass windows.

You'll also want to visit the Bell Inn, a timber-framed public house that was bequeathed by London stationer Ralph Newbery in 1608. Don't forget to explore the War Memorial, which was erected in 1920 and commemorates the death of the men from Waltham St Lawrence who died during the 1914-1918 war.
