Membury services is a motorway service station on the M4 motorway. It is located on the original site of the RAF Membury in the civil parish of Lambourn in the English county of Berkshire, not far from Swindon and Marlborough. It is owned by Welcome Break and is situated adjacent to the Membury Radio Mast.
The service station is one of fourteen for which large murals were commissioned from artist David Fisher in the 1990s, designed to reflect the local area and history.[2]
The Iron Age hillfort, Membury Camp, lies to the immediate southwest of the old airfield and the services.
