context_page_description: Aldbourne is a village and civil parish about 6 miles north-east of Marlborough, Wiltshire, England, in a valley on the south slope of the Lambourn Downs – part of the North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. From here an unnamed winterbourne flows south to join the River Kennet 4 miles near Ramsbury. The 2011 Census recorded the parish population as 1,833. It includes the hamlets of Upper Upham and Woodsend and part of the hamlet of Preston, which straddles the boundary with Ramsbury. The village of Snap became deserted in the early 20th century.
context_section_description: Aldbourne has two public houses, the Blue Boar and the Crown, and a volunteer-run sports and social club.
  There is a Co-op supermarket, and a village shop which includes a post office and a cafe. Aldbourne has had a village library since the 1930s, located for the last few decades in South Street.
  The village primary school, St Michael's C of E (Aided) School. was built in 1963 on the site of a national school that opened in 1858.
  Aldbourne Heritage Centre, next to the Crown Inn, is a museum run by the Aldbourne Community Heritage Group. It displays a changing array of exhibits from Aldbourne's history, ranging from Stone Age flints, through copies of medieval documents, to 19th and 20th-century photographs.
