LOCATION
The village of East Ilsley lies in a fold of the Berkshire Downs
close to the historic Ridgeway Path and its geographical position
on the Downlands largely determined its part in the pageant of
history, being on one of the busiest ancient routes across the
Downs, dating back to the Bronze Age.? It became an important
trading centre from the 13th century onwards for corn and later for
wool, ultimately being granted a Royal Charter by James I in
1620.
The Sheep Fairs held fortnightly, were second only to Smithfield in
London and at their height sold 400,000 with the record of 80,000
being penned in a single day. At the peak there were 24 inns and
public houses catering for all the farmers, shepherds and drovers
on market days.
Nowadays the village has successfully avoided the problem of
overdevelopment retaining it’s timeless character, and, whilst
continuing its link with farming, is more associated with
racehorses, with several racing stables being located in or near
the village.
The village has also greatly benefited from the A34 by-pass, which
previously went straight through the centre of the village and is
now sited away to the west of East Ilsley, becoming an important
dual carriageway linking the south coast to the Midlands.
Around the central part of the village there are many examples of
interesting period properties from timbered cottages to the more
elegant Queen Ann and Georgian country houses, especially in Broad
Street.? The village also boasts a village pond, parish church, two
well-known established Inns and a Church of England primary school.
For secondary education there is the highly acclaimed Downs School
at the nearby village of Compton (2 miles) which also has a VIth
form. Additionally there are numerous Private schools in the
general local area especially Abingdon.
There are main line stations at Newbury and Didcot, the latter
being nearer, providing fast commuter services up to London
(Paddington) in approx 45 mins.
The County town of Reading together with Oxford, Newbury and the M4
are all easily accessible, and the mainline station in Goring
provides excellent commuter services up to London (Paddington and
Waterloo).? Goring on Thames being the larger village has a wide
range of shops and amenities as well as Restaurants, Riverside
Café, Olde Worlde Inns, Bank, Doctors, Dentist, and 2 Hotels.
