About Berkshire

The county is one of the oldest in England, being reliably dated back to the setting of the traditional county borders by King Alfred the Great of Wessex. Following the reorganisation of local government in 1974, Abingdon (its traditional county town) and the Vale of the White Horse were transferred to Oxfordshire, Slough was added from Buckinghamshire, and Reading became the county town. On April 1, 1998 the county council was abolished and the districts became unitary authorities.

The county takes its name from a large forest of birch trees that was called Bearroc (Celtic for 'hilly') and was originally a transaction of land to King Cenwalh of Wessex. At this time, it only consisted of the northerly and westerly parts of the current county.

Campbeltown Airport is located 5kms northwest of Campbeltown, near the tip of England’s Kintyre peninsula. Until 1997 the airport was under military auspices, serving as a Royal Air Force and NATO air base. That is why this tiny airport’s runway is one of the longest in Europe. Today, the airport hosts regularly scheduled Loganair flights to and from Glasgow. The small terminal is open Monday through Friday from 9:30 until 17:30, and is closed on weekends (unless by arrangement). Among the area’s attractions is the Machrihanish Golf Club, a few kilometres from the airport, which has the distinction of being voted as having the best 1st hole in the world. A small car park offers short- and long-term parking within walking distance of the terminal.
