About Newbury
- Highclere Castle, a few miles south of Newbury, is one of the most recognisable country houses in Britain — the Victorian Gothic mansion that serves as the filming location for Downton Abbey, the television drama that has been watched by hundreds of millions of people around the world. The castle, which was designed by Charles Barry — the architect of the Houses of Parliament — in the 1840s for the third Earl of Carnarvon, is the home of the eighth Earl and Countess of Carnarvon, and it is open to the public for tours and events. The castle's Egyptian Exhibition, which commemorates the fifth Earl of Carnarvon's role in the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb in 1922, is one of the most popular attractions in Berkshire.
- The Battles of Newbury, fought in 1643 and 1644 during the English Civil War, were two of the most significant engagements of the conflict — battles in which the Royalist and Parliamentary armies fought to control the road between London and the west of England. The first battle, fought on Wash Common to the south of the town in September 1643, was a Royalist defeat that prevented Charles I from marching on London; the second, fought at Shaw House to the north of the town in October 1644, was an inconclusive engagement that allowed the king to escape. The battlefields, which are now largely built over, are commemorated by plaques and monuments in the town.
- The Kennet and Avon Canal, which passes through the centre of Newbury, was completed in 1810 and connects the River Thames at Reading with the River Avon at Bath — a 87-mile waterway that was one of the most important transport routes in southern England before the coming of the railways. The canal was restored by volunteers in the 1960s and 1970s and is now one of the most popular leisure waterways in Britain, attracting narrowboats, canoes, and walkers along its towpath. The wharf at Newbury, where the canal widens into a basin, is one of the most attractive stretches of the waterway, and the town's connection with the canal is one of the most important aspects of its industrial heritage.
