Whitchurch
Whitchurch is a town 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 kilometres) eastern of Andover and also 12 miles (19 kilometres) west of Basingstoke. Much of the town is a Sanctuary. Because of the amount of wildlife in and also near the River Test, its course and also banks are designated as Site of Special Scientific Interest. The West of England Main Line connects the town's train station to London, as well as 2 main roads bypass the town (the A34, a major north-- south route, and also the A303, a major eastern-- west path). The population is 8,962. The community is a growing neighborhood with a mix of houses as well as some light sector, and serves as a tiny traveler community to London (around 60 miles to the east) and to a minimal extent Basingstoke and Andover. Newbury and also Winchester, whilst close by, can not be reached by rail without substantial detour (since the closure of Whitchurch Community train station in 1960) therefore commuting to these areas is mostly by vehicle. Lynch Hill Park, a small housing development, was made use of in a TV advert for Roysters crisps as a result of its "typical" American look. The centre of the community is a roundabout known as The Square.
