Farnham is an electoral ward within the borough of Slough, in ceremonial Berkshire. It is primarily residential, with a mix of interwar and post‑war council and private housing, local shops and small green spaces serving a largely suburban community rather than a distinct town centre of its own.
The ward sits close to major employment and transport hubs - notably the nearby Slough Trading Estate and easy access to the M4 and rail links that make commuting into London common - and reflects the diversity and economic contrasts found across the wider borough, with active community centres and local groups playing a visible role in day‑to‑day life.
