About

Newbury Greenham ward lies on the southern edge of Newbury town, encompassing a mix of residential and significant former military land. The area is defined by the large, open expanse of Greenham Common, a vast area of heath and scrubland that dominates the landscape. Residential neighbourhoods, including parts of Wash Common, are situated around this central space, providing housing close to the town's amenities while bordering this notable common.

The ward's history is intrinsically linked to the former RAF Greenham Common airbase, with its control tower remaining a prominent local landmark. The common itself is now a public space with walking and cycling routes, its former runway areas still visible. This open heathland creates a clear distinction from the more urban centre of Newbury, offering immediate access to open countryside for residents.
