proudly produced by Newbury News Ltd Out & about in: Hungerford Welcome to this edition of
Hungerford is a small yet bustling historic town in West Berkshire, only 3 miles from junction 14 of the M4 motorway. At the centre of the North Wessex Downs, it is set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is renowned for its many antique shops. The town is an excellent place to come for shopping away from the big chains. It is able to offer a wide range of independent shops for the discerning buyer or browser. It is also a convenient base from which to explore the surrounding hamlets and countryside. There are many walking, cycling and riding routes that let you experience the tranquil beauty of the landscape. Meander over the canal where cruises are available from April until October, take a walk along the towpath, or check out the shops either side of the bridge. The town hosts a number of unique events, including Tutti Day, a 3-week Arts Festival (including Carnival Day) and a late-night Victorian Extravaganza in December. Hungerford is a great place to visit. There are many establishments where you can enjoy a cup of tea, a bite to eat, or a glass of wine, or beer. It makes a fascinating day out and offers a fabulous range of shops and businesses, many of which feature in this guide. So come and visit this vibrant town, or stay overnight and enjoy exploring Hungerford’s charm and beauty.
