Is Newbury pronounced:

  • (2 syllables) New•brie; or,
  • (3 syllables) New•b’uh•ree

I really need to know, and Wikipedia says nothing!

      I thought New-brie… but then on the train in, the automated announcements enunciated hard and squeezed out the extra syllable.

        tbf I reckon either is completely fine unless you’re overenunciating “New-Berry” :-)
