Bray is a village and civil parish in the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead, Berkshire, set on the south bank of the River Thames between Maidenhead and Windsor. It has a distinctly riverside character around Bray Lock and the marina, a compact historic core with listed buildings and the medieval St Michael’s Church, and sits conveniently on the M4 corridor making it popular with commuters to London.
Bray is perhaps best known for its extraordinary culinary scene – restaurants such as The Fat Duck and The Waterside Inn have attracted international visitors and multiple Michelin stars, so hospitality and tourism are major parts of the local economy. The village combines an affluent, residential feel with traditional pubs, riverside walks and a long local history, giving it a mix of quiet village life and notable cultural draw.
