I Really Like Newbury

I really like Newbury. It is unlike anywhere else I have lived. I like the sense of history in old buildings and Donington castle that I can see from my house; I like the big houses used on TV like Highclere Castle (Downton) and Welford House (Bake Off); I like the water all around - the Lambourne river, the Kennet and Avon canal; I like the locks in the town centre, the bridges (22!); the West Berkshire countryside; I like the clock tower; the sense of community; so much happening in the town; the relationships between the churches; the Newbury Weekly News; racehorses in the paddock; Parkway Christmas lights; making new friends; so much in Newbury to enjoy...
