Day-to-day life in Eastbury is shaped by the river and the downs. The village has its church and a strong community spirit, enough that residents have published their own book on its history. Lambourn's library, primary school and the Lambourn Centre, with its gym and sports hall, are a few minutes up the road, and most errands mean a drive to Lambourn, Hungerford or Newbury. Lambourn is known as the 'Valley of the Racehorse', with more than 1,500 horses stabled in and around it, and strings of racehorses heading up to the gallops are part of everyday life. Footpaths follow the river onto open downland, three Sites of Special Scientific Interest lie close by, and the Lambourn Carnival is a highlight of the local calendar.
The River Lambourn runs through the middle of the village, and much of Eastbury lines the old valley road between Newbury and Lambourn. Its recorded history goes back almost a thousand years: the 'tithing of Eastbury' appears in a charter of King Cnut from around 1033. The Grade II* listed St Antolin's Cross stands at the centre of the village, and the flint Church of St James was designed by G E Street and built between 1851 and 1863. Homes are a mix of older cottages and houses along the river road and later properties.
Eastbury has no station of its own. Eastbury Halt, on the Lambourn Valley Railway, opened in 1898 and closed in 1960, so today residents drive to Hungerford or Newbury for Great Western Railway trains towards Reading and London Paddington. Junction 14 of the M4 is a short drive south-east, which puts Swindon, Reading and the west within easy reach.
