Everything about Crowthorne totally explained
» Crowthorne is also a suburb of Johannesburg, South Africa
Crowthorne is a small
town and
civil parish in the
Bracknell Forest district of south-eastern
Berkshire. It is best known for
Broadmoor Hospital, one of three high-security psychiatric hospitals in England, which lies nearby.
The village was only a small
hamlet until
Wellington College was opened to educate sons of
British Army officers in
1859, followed by Broadmoor in
1863.
Crowthorne railway station, originally known as Wellington College for Crowthorne station, was opened in
1860, and the town grew quickly. In the
1960s, the
Transport Research Laboratory opened in Crowthorne, and this is now the main employer for those who don't
commute.
The Crowthorne urban area spills over into the neighbouring parish of
Wokingham Without but the other half (perhaps more than half) is in the Bracknell Forest district. Edgbarrow Woods are between Sandhurst and Crowthorne.
