Avington, Berkshire Weather
About Avington, Berkshire
Avington reveals itself as a quiet collection of dwellings defined by the patient, clear waters that carve through the local chalk bedrock. It lies 2.0 miles east of Hungerford (from Hungerford: bearing 97°T, OS grid SU 370 681), and is situated north-west of Kintbury village. Because Avington rests within the River Kennet SSSI, the surrounding landscape is marked by a distinctive, silver-toned moisture that clings to the riverside reeds even during the height of summer. The land here slopes away from the water’s edge towards the distant rise of Blandys Hill, where the horizon catches a pale, constant light. History remains present in the flint-knapped masonry of the local architecture, which mirrors the stubborn geology of the valley floor. Avington maintains a solitary character, far removed from the bustle of the nearby market tracks or the public paths of Hungerford Common Port Down. The atmosphere suggests a place where the seasons are measured by the slow migration of water birds rather than the turning of calendar pages. Such seclusion allows the air to hold a clarity that sharpens the edges of the fields, leaving the observer with a sense of immense, unhurried distance.
