    Newbury Facts – Did you know…

    1. Who Did What?!?
      When Who band members Keith Moon and John Entwistle were late for a show at the Corn Exchange, Roger Daltrey and Pete Townsend began the gig with members of the support act. Finally arriving and seeing they’d been replaced, Moon and Entwistle started a fight with their own band which left Moon with a black eye and broken ankle.
    2. Watership Down
      Six miles south of the town, Watership Down was the inspiration for author Richard Adams, who spent many happy summers playing on the downs that inspired and shaped his most famous novel about the adventures of a group of rabbits.
    3. Marmalade Sandwiches
      Another of Newbury’s famous authors is Michael Bond, the creator of the much loved Paddington Bear. Other famous residents include, Sebastian Faulks, Keith Chegwin, Theo Walcott, Sir Frank Williams (F1 motorsport) and Bruno Brookes.
    4. And They’re Off!
      The first recorded horse race in Newbury took place in 1805 but it wasn’t until 1905 that the racecourse held its first official race meeting. During the First World War the site was used to house German prisoners of war.
    5. Booked
      The town was recorded in the Domesday Book (1086). It had 12 ploughs, 2 mills, 25 pigs, 11 ‘villeins’ (farmhands) and 11 ‘bordars’ (peasants who rented what poorer land).
    6. The Newbury Coat
      Perhaps one of the finest bets ever made. In 1811 Sir John Throckmorton bet local mill owner John In 1811 Sir John Throckmorton bet local mill owner John Coxeter he couldn’t produce a woollen coat in a single day. Challenge accepted, two sheep were shorn at 5am… The coat was finished with an hour to spare, Coxeter spent his winnings on beer for the gathered crowd and the two sheep were roasted in celebration.

    About

    Surrounded by the North Wessex Downs, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Newbury is perhaps best known for its racecourse. This picturesque market town sits in the Kennet Valley, a short distance from Oxford, Winchester and Swindon with excellent commuter links and easy access to the M4.

    It was a major stop for coaches (one inn alone had spaces for 300 horses) before the arrival of the Great Western Railway between London and Bath.

    Today it’s home to a number of big tech companies. It’s also in a region of some great wineries, vineyards and farms, so whether you like your grapes fresh from the vine or fermented, there’s plenty of local produce to enjoy.

    Leisure

    There are two theatres, a cinema, three golf courses, a leisure centre with a swimming pool and soft play for younger ones. The town has excellent shops and some particularly good restaurants and eateries.

    If your passion is speed, then both the racecourse and Donnington Park are close by. Both venues also host concerts featuring major artists.

    If you want enjoy nature, the North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the real Watership Down are within easy reach.
