Post Code: RG7 4LW

Note. Aldermaston in keeping with a great many areas in the UK had flooding in 2007, this was surface water, not river water and was a combination of high rainfall and water levels. A month of rain fell in 24 hours onto already saturated flood plains. The road drainage system could not cope. We understand the culverts have now been cleared and Aldermaston has not had any problem with flooding since this time. This was very much a freak weather condition.

Tenure: Freehold

Services: Mains water and drainage, electricity, gas, gigaclear available.
