About

Lambourn ward encompasses a large rural area centred around the village of Lambourn, often referred to as the 'Valley of the Racehorse'. The landscape is dominated by open downland, with numerous gallops and training yards spread across its chalk hills.

The ward's extensive network of bridleways and riding tracks underscores its primary economic and cultural identity, set within the wider North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
