Whether you are from Mid-Berkshire or just visiting, this book is the place to find out all about the history of some 113 different towns, suburbs, villages and hamlets in the Borough of Reading, the vast majority of the Borough of Wokingham and the eastern regions of the District of West Berkshire. Join David Nash Ford as he examines the structures, people, events and many more things that have shaped each place. Some of these histories were first published in part on our Royal County of  Berkshire History website, but they have all been considerably expanded and are joined by many new histories of places often missed by historians, including those which only joined Berkshire in 1911 or later. The book is designed so that you can choose whether to read it all together, or just pick the place you want to know about. It is A5, contains 330 pages, is illustrated by 143 black and white images, has a full index and covers histories of the following:
