Reading

How do I get There?
The nearest airport is London Heathrow and from there you can take the RailAir bus service into Reading. If you want to drive, Reading is easily accessible from Heathrow and the London area using the M4 motorway, a journey of approximately 40km. Within the town you can use the local bus service or the OY bicycle sharing system, they have 15 cycles and 3 docking stations around the town.

What can I see in the Town?
Take a walk around Forbury Gardens and you will see the statue of the Maiwand Lion, it is a symbol of Reading and commemorates the soldiers from the Royal Berkshire Regiment who died at the Battle of Maiwand in 1880. Reading Minster is the oldest religious building in the town. Founded in the 9th century, it only gained importance once Reading Abbey was destroyed. To discover the history of the town and see a replica of the Bayeux Tapestry, visit the Museum of Reading.

What About Shopping?
You can shop until you drop in Reading! The main shopping area is Broad Street which has the Oracle shopping centre at one end and Broad Street Mall at the other. For something a little different, browse in the Bristol and West Arcade and Harris Arcade with their small specialist stores. If you want to look around a traditional market, go to Hosier Street, where they also have a farmers market, 2 days a month.

Anything Else?
For a little culture you can go and see a play at the Hexagon Theatre or the Progress Theatre which has amateur productions.

The tranquil ruins of Reading Abbey and the beautiful gardens of Forbury Park surrounding it, draw many tourists to the town. Others visit the town’s museum to learn about the nearby Roman settlement of Silchester, the effect of the coming of the railways to Reading and the industrial past of the town.

Outside the town, hiring a car is probably the only way to get to one of the South’s most isolated spots, the site of Silchester. There, in a windswept landscape, you can trace the walls that enclosed the town and discover the remains of the amphitheatre.
