Maidenhead is a town in England. It is situated in Berkshire. This is emphatically NOT in Kent (you're thinking of Maidstone), nor is it in Somerset (that's Minehead). It is also not in New Jersey (that 'Maidenhead' was renamed to 'Lawrenceville' a long time ago). If I had a penny for every time I invited someone over, and they got lost on the I-95...
Maidenhead is situated on the River Thames, the M4 motorway, the A404 Marlow Bypass, and the Elizabeth Line, on the railway between London Paddington and Reading.
Maidenhead is also home to the A308(M), which is one of the shortest motorways in the world.
