Burghclere

Work by the 20th-century artist Stanley Spencer can be found in the Sandham Memorial Chapel.

Limited bus services to Newbury are provided by Stagecoach route 7A (as of March 2019).

Burghclere has some beautiful rural scenery, so you can walk along the old railway, through many fields, or go for a hike.

The rabbit warren where Cowslip lived in Richard Adams' Watership Down was in High Wood, just north-east of Burghclere village.

In the book Rural Rides published by William Cobbett in 1822 the name of the village was recorded as Berghclere.
