Cookham Dean Common
The largest of several bits of common land at Cookham Dean owned by the National Trust.
"The commons were originally part of the Royal Manor of Cookham, but these were sold off by the Crown in 1818 and passed into private ownership. In the 1920s, for fear that the common land would be enclosed, the Maidenhead and Cookham Commons Conservation Committee was established. This raised £2800 to buy the land, which was donated to the National Trust in 1934."
