Hedsor House is a Georgian style mansion in England, Great Britain in the southern most point of Buckinghamshire in the village of Hedsor, Taplow. Perched overlooking the River Thames, a Manor house at Hedsor can be dated back to 1166 when the estate was owned by the de Hedsor Family. In the 18th Century it was a royal residence of Princess Augusta, Dowager Princess of Wales. It is the film location of Beecham House in Dustin Hoffman's Quartet starring Maggie Smith and Michael Gambon.
Hedsor Water
Hedsor Water is a backwater of the River Thames near Cookham, Berkshire which leaves the river above Cookham Lock and rejoins at the tail of the lock cut, running alongside Sashes Island. Hedsor Water was once the main course of the Thames but was by-passed for navigation by the construction of Cookham Lock in 1830. Navigation is only possible for the first 100 metres from the downstream end where a few temporary moorings are available.
Sashes Island
Sashes Island is an island in the River Thames in England at Cookham Lock near Cookham, Berkshire. It is now open farmland, but has Roman and Anglo-Saxon connections. The island is located between Hedsor Water and the present navigation channel leading to Cookham Lock. It can be reached from Cookham by footbridges across three channels of the River Thames via Formosa Island and Mill Island. Its name is derived from Sceaftesege or "Sceaf’s Isle".
