About

Newbury town centre sits where the River Kennet and the Kennet and Avon Canal meet the retail streets. The Market Place and Corn Exchange sit close to Northbrook Street and the Kennet towpath, with locks and canal bridges threading through the centre. Newbury railway station provides direct services toward Reading and the west, and regular bus routes connect the town with surrounding settlements. Local civic services, small businesses and weekly markets concentrate activity within walking distance of the station and the riverside paths.

Greenham lies immediately to the south and east of the town and is dominated by the open expanse of Greenham and Crookham Commons, managed as common land and supporting heathland habitats. The landscape still shows concrete sections and other traces from the former RAF Greenham Common era, and the area is remembered for the women’s peace camp of the 1980s. Footpaths and cycle routes cross the common and link back into Newbury, providing a mixture of urban services and large open space within a short distance of the town centre.
