    Crowthorne Facts – Did you know…

    1. Early Days
      The first written mention record of ‘Crow Thorn’ appears on a map dating from 1607 where a thorn tree marked an area near Brooker’s Corner on the Roman Road known as ‘The Devil’s Highway’.
    2. Albertville
      During the reign of Queen Victoria, plans were put in place to rename the town “Albertville” after the Queen’s husband, Prince Albert. Doctor Edward White Benson led a successful local campaign to retain the village’s historic name.
    3. Holk’s Bottom
      Until the arrival of Broadmoor Hospital (1863) and Wellington College (1859), Crowthorne was just a tiny hamlet. The hospital was built at a spot originally known as ‘Kitt Holk’s Bottom’.
    4. Wellington College
      The college was founded as a school for orphans of military officers and was named in honour of the Duke of Wellington, who used to ride and hunt in the area. Boys were expected to follow their fathers into the military. It took 100 years before girls were allowed to attend the school.
    5. Broadmoor Hospital
      Originally named ‘Broadmoor Criminal Lunatic Asylum’, the site was chosen because of its remoteness. There were 15 escapes in the first 7 years, so the walls were raised to 16 feet. It was the arrival of the school and hospital that drove the need for homes and the expansion of the village.
    6. Devils & Kings
      As well the wonderfully named Devil’s Highway, another interesting route ran between three royal castles at Winchester, Windsor and Odiham. Often used by King John in the 13th century, it became known as Three Castle’s Path.

    About

    Charmingly named after a solitary thorn tree that stood on the Devil’s Highway, this once secluded hamlet is now a bustling village with a vibrant events calendar, excellent amenities and good travel connections.

    Parents will find highly rated schools in the area. There are lakes, woodland, a nature reserve and plenty of country pubs for newbies of all ages to explore.

    Leisure

    If you’re keen to get out into the great outdoors, Owlsmoor bogs are packed full of wildlife. Nearby Buckler’s Forest Nature Reserve is a Site of Special Scientific Interest, along with the adjoining Heath Lake.

    The village has several annual events including the May Fair with entertainment, stalls and activities. The Crowthorne Carnival is another local favourite with its procession of floats through the village, ending at a fair held at Morgan Recreation Ground.
