About

Barkham and Woose Hill form a semi-rural ward on the western edge of Wokingham.

Housing ranges from modern estates to older cottages, set against a backdrop of farmland and woodland. The local landscape includes the grounds of the historic Barkham Manor, contributing to a settled, village-like atmosphere within the larger borough.
