	Lambourn - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Lambourn is a small market town and civil parish in the northwestern corner of the ceremonial county of Berkshire in England.
		The town (commonly referred to as a large village) is situated in the valley of the River Lambourn, a Summer bourn in the chalk upland area of the Berkshire Downs.
		Lambourn and the surrounding downland is best known today as a major centre of, mainly National Hunt, horse racing, with many major stables and varied turf and all-weather gallops situated in and around the village.

		Storm events in the River Enborne were more significant in the downstream transport of P than in the River Lambourn, especially during August to October when dry antecedent conditions were observed in the catchment.
		Phosphorus concentrations in bedload (means of 1.1 and 1.5 mg P/g dry sediment, in the Rivers Lambourn and Enborne respectively) were generally lower than in SS (means of 1.6 and 2.0 mg P/g dry sediment).
		Overall, net retention of P in the River Lambourn and Enborne study reaches was observed (1.5 and 10.7 tonnes P/year, respectively) and the implications for this upon catchment management were reviewed.

	Eastbury
		Eastbury stands on the River Lambourn, although the river has a tendency to dry up and disappear during the winter.
		The whole Lambourn Valley area is famous for its racing stables and studs, and racehorses being ridden to and from the gallops on the downs constitute the main traffic hazard in these parts.
		In the year before we moved in, the garden won the Lambourn Valley Spring Garden prize, so we were a little worried that we wouldn't be able to maintain the high standard expected and thus get thrown out of the village.

		Abstract: The water quality of the Pang and Lambourn, tributaries of the River Thames, in south-eastern England, is described in relation to spatial and temporal dimensions.
		The river waters are supplied mainly from Chalk-fed aquifer sources and are, therefore, of a calcium-bicarbonate type.
		The major, minor and trace element chemistry of the rivers is controlled by a combination of atmospheric and pollutant inputs from agriculture and sewage sources superimposed on a background water quality signal linked to geological sources.

	Fishing Breaks - River Kennet
		The Kennet's principal tributaries are the River Lambourn, the River Enborne and the Foudry Brook.
		This Wiltshire/Berkshire river features heavily in fly fishing literature; Halford had a lease on a considerable length of water in the late 1800’s, John Waller Hills fished it regularly and often wrote about the native Kennet trout, known as the ‘greenback’, now a much sought after rarity.
		The three miles of the River Kennet at Barton Court lies to the east of Hungerford, generally regarded as the best section of this Berkshire chalk stream.

		The Ock and Lambourn catchments are adjacent to one another in central southern England.
		The Lambourn is a tributary of the River Kennet and drains south-eastwards from the Berkshire Downs.
		The Lambourn catchment is very permeable - almost all the rain infiltrates through the thin soils and percolates down to the water-table (in the Chalk) and contributes to the river flow via springs and through the bed of the channel.

	The Lambourn Valley Railway
		Primarily the water supply to the station was ferried in from Lambourn by train, but in 1954 mains supplied water was available for the first time by connecting into the pipeline previously laid by the military line contractors in 1952.
		At the Lambourn end of the platform, near the signal box, the ramps were edged with concrete.
		Racehorse traffic was non-existant and in the final years Little or no milk was forwarded from the station, the main income being the conveyance of watercress grown in the nearby river Lambourn, agricultural commodities and small amounts of timber.

	Geological Society - Group Details - Catchment Scale Hydrogeology Abstracts
		The River Lambourn in Berkshire forms a tributary to the River Kennet (which drains into the Thames) and is underlain by Cretaceous Chalk.
		However, temporal variations in groundwater chemistry and tracer data show that mixing between the river, gravels and chalk is important, and together with groundwater head measurements indicate a complex relationship between the aquifer and river.
		Work on the Pang and Lambourn Rivers have shown that the river and dry valleys act as collectors and conduits for groundwater flow and that flow underneath the river and along the direction of the valley maybe as important as the flow in the river.

		The Environment Agency Brief was to restore the degraded urban section of the River Dour running through Dover and the surrounding catchment.
		This was a follow-on project for English Nature, based on Robin’s earlier EN study preparing restoration specifications and designs on a 3.5 km length of the river Lambourn from Hunts Green downstream through Newbury.
		His knowledge allows him to provide specialist advice on both river and tidal sedimentation and erosion, fluvial geomorphologically based river restoration, and cost effectiveness of catchment wide assessment and restoration.

	Pioneering University Research Reveals Impact of Newbury Bypass on the Environment
		The nine-mile bypass, opened in late 1998, has benefited from the installation of eight new balancing ponds which act as a filter mechanism for pollutants such as oil, road surface particles and heavy metals that are found in road water run-off.
		However due to recent storms there is concern that the polluted sediment deposited in the ponds may be released into the Rivers Kennet and River Lambourn unless a strategy is found to deal with the disposal of the accumulated sediment.
		The Newbury Bypass is one of the country's most controversial bypasses as it was built through sensitive wildlife-rich areas, among them the internationally important River Kennet, one of Britain's finest chalk rivers, and the River Lambourn, both designated Sites of Special Scientific Interest.
