Editing Upton, Slough (section)

==History==
The [[Domesday Book]] survey of 1086 refers to Upton and a wood for 200 pigs, worth £15. Upton took its name from its situation at the top of the slope from the river terrace — the various levels in the area having been formed in the [[Last Ice Age]].

The ancient parish, and the [[civil parish]] until 1894, included [[Chalvey]] and Slough, originally hamlets, and was formally known as '''Upton-cum-Chalvey'''.  In 1894, the new civil parish of Slough was formed from the parish.  In 1895 a detached part of the parish was transferred to [[Gerrards Cross]], and in 1900 and 1901 the rump of the parish was divided between the neighbouring parishes of [[Eton, Berkshire|Eton]], [[Langley, Berkshire|Langley]], Slough and [[Wexham]].<ref>[http://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/relationships.jsp?u_id=10218020 Vision of Britain website]</ref> The ecclesiastical parish is still known as Upton-cum-Chalvey.<ref>[http://www.stmarys-slough.org.uk/aboutsm/widerchurch.html St Mary's Church Slough website]</ref>
