    Hungerford Facts
    Did you know..?

    1. Tale of Two Counties
      Until 1865 the town actually sat in two separate counties, Berkshire and Wiltshire before being transferred to one single parish under the jurisdiction of Royal Berkshire.
    2. A Bit Common
      Nearby Port Down comprises of 200 acres of common land which by law is still open for grazing. It was once used for fairs, markets, prize fighting and horse racing.
    3. Tutti Day
      Also known as Hocktide, Tutti Day dates back to the medieval period. One Tutti Day custom involved townsmen tying up local women and demanding a kiss for their release, the following day the roles reversed. The event is still celebrated with ale tasting, a fair and ‘commoners lunchtime’.
    4. William & The Bear
      In 1688 William of Orange (Prince of Holland) landed in Devon and marched on London. He went unopposed as King James II’s army deserted him. Three MPs met William at Hungerford’s Bear Inn and offered him the throne in return for giving more power to parliament. James fled to France and William took the crown.
    5. Name Game
      Some historians believe the name derives from Saxon and means “Ford crossing to poor land.”
    6. Bath Road
      The town sits on the Bath Road. Originally known as ‘The King’s Way’, it was the main route between London and eh South West for mail, goods and stagecoaches, until canals and eventually trains took over.

    About

    Hungerford has witnessed key events in Britain’s history and has its own unique and quirky traditions.

    There are great independent shops including a number of antique and vintage stores. Foodies will find plenty to get their teeth into with casual eateries by day and delightful restaurants at night, along with several good pubs in the town and surrounding villages.

    Leisure

    The Kenet and Avon Canal offers miles of paths for dogwalkers and runners. There are rivers and common land in Port Down plus the eco-rich Freeman’s Marshland. The town sits in Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with several riding stables and golf courses nearby.

    If you like your days out with a touch more madness, the town’s famous Tutti Day celebrations are wonderfully bonkers in a quintessentially Berkshire way. Long may it continue!
