Marsworth is a small rural parish in Buckinghamshire, sitting close to the border with Hertfordshire and just a short drive from Tring. The village is notable for its close relationship with water: the Marsworth Reservoir forms part of the chain of Tring Reservoirs that supply the Grand Union Canal, making the area popular with walkers, anglers and birdwatchers and giving the landscape a distinctive mixture of open water, farmland and hedged lanes.
Historically an agricultural settlement that expanded with the coming of the canal and reservoirs in the nineteenth century, the parish today is largely residential with a strong local community and an economy shaped by commuting, farming and leisure tourism. Historic buildings and a quiet village green atmosphere sit alongside conservation interests and outdoor recreation, so visitors often find a peaceful countryside feel within easy reach of larger market towns and transport links.
