Arborfield Church, St Bartholomew's makes a great place to pause on a hike. There are benches in the churchyard which feels like you are right in the countryside, rather than a stones throw from Reading.

Although from 1863, we can consider this as Arborfield's new church, as the old one was located in a different place. Some materials from the old church were used in the construction of this new one, leaving only its ruins."

The present Church of England parish church of Saint Bartholomew is a Gothic Revival building designed by J Picton and built in 1863.
The new building replaces an older St Bartholomew's church that had been built in the 13th century and altered probably early in the 18th century. When the new church was consecrated the roof of the old one was removed and later layers of plaster stripped from the interior walls, revealing Medieval wall paintings of "figure subjects and geometrical and masonry patterns" that "covered the walls".
These have now been lost and the church ruins have greatly deteriorated.
