History
Bockhampton is an abandoned village in Berkshire that was enclosed in the late 18th century. Situated on the River Lambourn southeast and downstream of Lambourn, it was also known as Lower Lambourn, as opposed to Upper Lambourn which is upstream. There is a road sign for Bockhampton on the Newbury Road pointing down Bockhampton Road towards the old site of the village in the sheep pasture next to the electricity substation.
