From Theale to Reading town centre - contemplating the flow of The Holy Brook at Purple Turtle as it winds it’s way to Reading Abbey Quarter. Cartographer John Speed (1551-1629) refers to the channel as ‘hallowed brooke’ in his 1611 map of the town #rdg #rdguk

My first Reading Museum Reading Abbey Quarter tour of the summer completed. Lovely group who were engaged throughout. Thanks to Bethan who assisted me. Tours most Saturday mornings through the summer so make sure you book via the museum. #rdguk #austen250

The Bayeux Tapestry is set to be shown at British Museum, returning to British soil for the first time in 900 years. Reading Museum has a stunning replica created in the 19th century, with the added bonus of the Norman ruins of Reading Abbey Quarter nearby #history bit.ly/3TBvX2T

Just a short distance from Reading Museum is the Abbey Quarter. At its core is the extensive Abbey Ruins, telling the story of 900 years of history. Visit the spot where King Henry I, the founder, was buried, or where Jane Austen went to school 600 years later, and Oscar Wilde

The Bayeux tapestry is being lent to British Museum but Reading already has a Victorian replica 'Reading’s replica Bayeux tapestry is a prudish triumph!', The Guardian theguardian.com/artanddesign/2…
