Hungerford and Expo Hire Thames Valley
Hungerford is a historic market town and civil parish in Berkshire. It lies about eight miles west of Newbury and nine miles east of Marlborough. The Kennet and Avon Canal passes through the town from the west, alongside the River Dun, a major tributary of the River Kennet. The town is the only place in the country to have continuously celebrated Hocktide, held on the second Tuesday after Easter.
Historically, this celebration was associated with the town's great patron, John of Gaunt. The town crier, or “Bellman”, summons commoners to the Hocktide Court at Hungerford Town Hall. Two florally decorated “Tutti Men” and the “Orange Man” visit every house, accompanied by six “Tutti Girls”. They collect money to ensure fishing and grazing rights. In modern times, they primarily collect kisses from each lady of the house.
