Thatcham
Thatcham is a toun in Berkshire, Ingland 3 mile (5 km) east o Newbury an 15 mile (24 km) wast o Reading. Aften regardit as Breetain's auldest toun, it covers aboot 8.75 square miles (23 km²) an haes a population o 23,000 fowk (2003). This nummer haes grown rapidly ower the last few decades frae 5,000 in 1951 an 7,500 in 1961.
It lies on the River Kennet, the Kennet an Avon Canal, the A4 road an the course o a Roman road. It is servit bi Thatcham railwey station on the line atween Newbury an Reading an aw. Employment is providit bi a nummer o licht industrial units.
History
The aurie haes evidence o occupation datin frae prehistoric times an is leetit in the Guinness Warld Records as the strangest claimant tae bein the auldest continuously inhabitit place in Breetain. The well-preservit remains o a Mesolithic dounsets datin frae 7,700 BC hae been foond in its vicinity. Thare is evidence o Bronze an Airn Age dounsets an o a Roman toun an aw.
The name mey hae been derivit frae that o a Saxon chief cried Tace (or aiblins Tac or Tec), who established a veelage in aroond 500. The dounset wis kent as Taceham - ham meanin veelage in Saxon. It is possible that the name mey hae come frae the Saxon thaec (thatch) n aw. Whauriver it came frae, the name Taceham persistit till efter the Norman conquest in 1066 afore goin throu several minor chynges til the current ane wis adoptit in the 16t century.
The toun haed a period o great prosperity aroond 1304 when the Chapel o St. Thomas the Martyr on the A4, nou cried the Auld Bluecoat schuil, wis constructit. At this time the population wis lairger than Newbury's but declined as a result o the Black Daith which decimatit the aurie in 1348.

When his stryndants put his estates up for auction in 1798, Dunstan House failed tae sell an wis pulled doun. The land is nou a hoosin estate cried Dunstan Pairk.
Twa mills wur biggit at Colthrop in 1472, ane for corn an ane for fullin. The latter wis probably convertit efter the decline o the cloth trade. Thir mills wur replacit bi a paper mill biggit on thair steid bi 1799. This Colthrop Mill belangit tae the Reed Group in the twintiet century, an producit packagin materials.
Syne 1900, industry haes been attractit tae the aurie.

The Sterling Cable Works wis established nearbi an AWE Aldermaston an AERE Harwell, thegither wi the RLC Depot at Station Road, (which sadly closed doun in 1999) hae aw brocht employment an increasin prosperity tae the aurie. This growthe haes in turn brocht a further influx o population an haes attractit numerous businesses tae the toun.
