Whitchurch

Whitchurch is a community in Hampshire, England. It is on the River Test, 13 miles (21 km) south of Newbury, Berkshire, 12 miles (19 km) north of Winchester, 8 miles (13 km) east of Andover and also 12 miles (19 km) west of Basingstoke. Much of the town is a Sanctuary. Due to the amount of wildlife in as well as near the River Test, its training course and also banks are marked as Site of Special Scientific Interest. The West of England Main Line links the town's train station to London, as well as two highways bypass the community (the A34, a significant north-- south course, and also the A303, a major east-- west path). The population is 8,962. The town is a growing area with a mix of residential areas and some light industry, and also functions as a tiny commuter community to London (about 60 miles to the east) and to a minimal extent Basingstoke and Andover. Newbury and also Winchester, whilst nearby, can not be gotten to by rail without considerable detour (because the closure of Whitchurch Town train station in 1960) therefore commuting to these areas is mostly by car. Lynch Hill Park, a little housing development, was utilized in a TV advert for Roysters crisps because of its "typical" American appearance. The centre of the town is a roundabout referred to as The Square.
