It has shops, including a newsagent, vet, butcher, chemist, music shop, dog grooming parlour and a fish & chip shop, a large primary school, (Burford School), a private members club (The Barn Club, for valley residents), a village hall and two small churches (Anglican and Methodist) which form a Local Ecumenical Partnership "The Valley Church", where the local Boy Scout and Girl Guide groups and similar voluntary groups meet. Marlow Bottom is also home to the Rebellion Beer Company, an award winning local brewery producing regular and seasonal beers. The brewery hosts open evenings coupled with a tour every first Tuesday of each month for visitors and every second Tuesday of each month for members. ==Burford County Combined School== The primary school in Marlow Bottom is Burford County Combined School. It provides schooling for children aged 4–11, who will go on to either a local grammar school or secondary modern school depending on their results in the 11+ exam. The vast majority of students who attend Burford School live in the village although the school does accept students from outside. At present the school accommodates more than 420 pupils. The main school building comprises classrooms, work areas, a main hall, an information and communication technology (ICT) room and administrative offices. During 2001/02 two new classrooms were built. A new building that houses the library and music rooms was completed during the summer holidays. In September a new computer network was installed in the refurbished ICT room. The school is one of the most successful orienteering centres for children aged between 9 and 11 in the UK. The school's team, headed until his retirement in 2008 by Year 6 teacher Mr. Vyner, has won many British Schools Orienteering Championships in the past 10 years, with children of both genders frequently winning whole events.〔(British School's Orienteering Championships 2004 Results )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Marlow Bottom」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
