About Burghfield

Burghfield's ancient roots are whispered on the breeze that sweeps across its verdant fields. It lies 7.1 km south-west of Reading (from Reading: bearing 228°T, OS grid SU 662 684), and is situated north-east of Burghfield Common village. The River Kennet, a silvery ribbon, graces its landscape, often reflecting the soft, diffused light of the English sky, a light that seems to lend a gentle glow to the very stones of its older buildings. Historically, Burghfield has been a place of agricultural endeavour, its fertile soils yielding sustenance for generations, and traces of its past can still be discerned in the patterns of its hedgerows and the gentle contours of the land. The village green, a patch of well-trodden turf, has long been a focal point for community life, a place where neighbours have gathered and children have played under the watchful gaze of ancient trees.
