Welcome to the website of
Hamstead Marshall
a picturesque and historic village lying
between the Kennet and Enborne rivers, four miles west of
Newbury in West Berkshire. The name applies to a Saxon manor, a
church parish of twelfth-century foundation and a civil parish
since 1896. All fall within roughly the same boundary,
enclosing nearly three square miles of gently rolling farm and
park land.
