The Hind's Head, a seventeenth century coaching inn named after the Forster family crest, is the village's social hub. Every December since 1957, St Mary's church has staged the York Nativity Play, drawn from the medieval York Mystery Cycle, a tradition that brings visitors from well beyond the parish. Aldermaston Primary School, a Church of England school on Wasing Lane, was established in 1836, and Padworth College and Alder Bridge Steiner School are both nearby. AWE, a major local employer, is less than a mile south of the village.
Aldermaston was recorded in the Domesday Book, and its name comes from the Old English for an ealdorman's homestead. The Forster family built a large manor house here in the 1630s, and the estate was later bought by Charles Keyser, a stockbroker who famously resisted modernisation. That legacy shows on The Street, where most houses are Grade II listed and built from local red and blue brick, and the parish has 51 listed structures in all, including St Mary the Virgin, which dates from the mid twelfth century. The village also gave its name to Aldermaston Pottery, founded here in 1955.
Aldermaston station, at Aldermaston Wharf about a mile and a half north, has hourly Great Western Railway trains to Reading and Newbury from Monday to Saturday, with connections at Reading for London Paddington. The Kennet and Avon Canal towpaths there run east towards Reading and west towards Newbury. The A340 runs through the village as The Street, towards Pangbourne and Basingstoke, and the A4 lies a mile north.
