Maidenhead River

This document provides location information for a park that could be used as a filming location. The park is located at 3 Ray Mead Rd in Maidenhead and contains old fashioned buildings, an old style bench, and is located riverside, fitting the description of where characters used to meet in the narrative. As it is an outdoor location, the main lighting will come from the sun, moon, or streetlights, so portable lighting may need to be brought. There are no power sockets, so battery powered equipment and extra batteries will need to be used. Hazards include nearby roads and rivers, wildlife, and muddy grassy areas, but solutions outlined ensure filming stays away from hazards.
