Sunnymeads

Sunnymeads is a village which has now been swallowed by neighbouring village Wraysbury. Although the two are now considered as one, there are many indications that show that Sunnymeads was once an independent hamlet. These include the Sunnymead Stores, once a post office and off-license but now a tanning boutique, and Sunnymeads railway station, a little station which still serves the village today. The station is unmanned but tickets and travelcards can be purchased at the ticket machine.

Sunnymeads was one of the favourite destinations for Londoners both during and after the war. Londoners would come and build small shacks on the river. Few of these original houses still exists as they have been demolished and newer, bigger houses have been built in their place.

The name Sunnymeads also lives on in the name of Sunnymeads Masonic Lodge No 9313 in the Province of Buckinghamshire formed 21st April (St Georges Day)1989.It was formed mainly by members of Wraysbury Lodge No 8689 formed 24th February 1976 who live in and around Wraysbury who felt the need for another lodge as Wraybury No 8689 was such a popular lodge with a large waiting list. Sunnymeads is now one of the most successful lodges in Buckinghamshire and is well known throughout Buckinghamshire Freemasonry for it friendliness and charitable spirit..
