About

Burghfield Common is a large village situated in the West Berkshire district, characterised by its extensive residential development and surrounding green spaces. The area is primarily composed of housing estates built throughout the latter half of the 20th century, creating a settled community with local shops and services centred along The Miltons and Burghfield Road. The presence of several small parks and recreation grounds provides accessible outdoor space for residents within the built-up environment.

The landscape is defined by its proximity to the Kennet and Avon Canal to the south and areas of woodland like Grazeley Green Copse. A notable local feature is the annual Burghfield Carnival, a community event with a procession that has run for decades. The wider parish retains areas of farmland, offering a rural contrast to the village's core, while the historic Burghfield Village lies a short distance to the east.
