Skindles, Historic hotel by Maidenhead Bridge, England
The building stands alongside the River Thames, featuring traditional architectural elements and a prominent position near Maidenhead Bridge crossing points.
Originally constructed in 1743 as the Orkney Arms, the property was transformed into a hotel by William Skindle in 1833, marking a new chapter.
The establishment hosted performances by notable musicians including The Rolling Stones, The Stranglers, and The Strawbs during its operating years.
The site underwent redevelopment in 2015, resulting in the construction of residential units, office spaces, and a restaurant called Roux at Skindles.
During World War I, British military personnel named a cafe in Poperinghe, Belgium, after Skindles due to its reputation among officers.
