Map of the UK

Catmore is a tiny, rural village and civil parish tucked away in West Berkshire, England, set among rolling chalk downland and mixed farmland. The settlement is very small, with a handful of houses and farmsteads linked by quiet lanes and public footpaths, giving it the feel of an unspoilt countryside hamlet rather than a built-up village.

Historically it has medieval roots and retains a number of traditional buildings and the compact parish footprint common to ancient rural parishes; the local economy is dominated by agriculture and estate land, and community life tends to be close-knit with many residents looking to nearby larger villages for shops and services. Its quiet lanes, hedgerows and surrounding downland make it attractive to walkers and anyone seeking a secluded slice of rural Berkshire.
