About Upper Bucklebury

Sunlight, as it often does in Berkshire, spills in generous swathes across the fields surrounding Upper Bucklebury, lending a soft luminescence to the landscape. It lies 2.6 km east-north-east of Thatcham (from Thatcham: bearing 62°T, OS grid SU 540 686), and is situated north-west of Midgham village. The earth here, a rich loam, has long sustained the agricultural heart of Upper Bucklebury, its gentle contours hinting at centuries of cultivation, a quiet testament to the enduring relationship between people and the land. The village itself, a scattering of houses and cottages, possesses a pleasing informality, as if it grew organically from the very soil, rather than being meticulously planned. A palpable sense of continuity permeates the air, a whisper of lives lived and seasons turned, where the familiar chime of church bells might still mark the passing hours. The very air seems to carry the scent of damp earth and hedgerow blossoms, a subtle perfume that speaks of the English countryside at its unpretentious best.
