Have you seen our Disco Dragons treasure map?

It's a fun way to explore and learn more about the historic town of Newbury. The creative ideas for the map came from the children at Speenhamland School, with local businesses and agencies also involved.

The map is based in the heart of Newbury town centre with walking routes designed to help find the hidden treasures which are the gargoyles and statues that adorn the town. The project is part of a plan to get people active and walking, both in the town and out on the wealth of parks and footpaths around Newbury.

They are free and available to request from places such as Newbury Library, West Berkshire Museum, The Watermill Theatre, Tiny Town Café, Crystals and Rainbowz (in Kennet Shopping Centre) and The Ugly Duckling Pottery Painting Coffee House on Bartholomew Street. This will be limited to one map per family.

Grab yours today and let the treasure hunt begin!
