About

The Burghfield & Mortimer ward encompasses several villages and extensive rural land in the eastern part of West Berkshire. The area is characterised by a mix of residential settlements and agricultural fields, with the M4 motorway forming a significant boundary to the north. The ward includes the communities of Burghfield Common and parts of Mortimer, which maintain their own local centres with essential services and community facilities. This is a primarily residential area with a notable presence of older housing stock alongside newer developments.

The geography is defined by low-lying terrain and several small waterways, creating areas of green space and woodland between settlements. A network of public footpaths and bridleways connects the villages through the surrounding countryside. The local economy is supported by small businesses and commuting residents, with limited larger-scale employment within the ward itself. The presence of historic parish churches, such as St. Mary's in Burghfield, reflects the area's long-standing development as a series of distinct villages rather than a single urban entity.
