The George is a decent pub for food and drinks near to the Wall of Fame at Loddon Bridge, a legal graffiti spot beneath the A329(M) where the concrete pillars are covered in murals, full height pieces, throw ups and street art that changes week by week. It’s well known locally as one of the few places where street artists can paint without hassle, so the walls are never static and that constant turnover is what it’s famous for. Access is straightforward also from The George pub car park, and its position right by the River Loddon makes it an easy detour from National Cycle Route 5 and other local paths. Flat and accessible on foot or bike, it’s worth a stop whether you’re passing through or planning a short loop – and pairing it with a pint at The George before or after is always an option.

A new station in south Reading on the Reading-Basingstoke line. 2 trains/hour. It's the same price to travel here from Wokingham or Crowthone as Reading (General).

Here is the entrance to the Harris Garden. Inside, you will enjoy a beautiful botanical garden where you can find ponds, a formal garden, a heather garden, a coppiced woodland, and a wildflower meadow.

Longwater Lake is the focal point of Green Park, a business park and residential area. A walk around its calm, flat waters are a good tonic to a stressful day.

Established in Victorian times, Forbury Gardens is a sweet haven from the hustle and bustle of Reading. As it is a walled garden, the noise of the town is kept well at bay. The statue of the lion is formally called the Maiwand Lion and was built to commemorate the local lives lost during the 2nd Anglo-Afghan War between 1878 and 1880. There is a local rumour that the sculptor, George Blackall Simonds, took his own life after realising that the lion's stance was impossible, as should the lion walk, it would fall over. However, this is not true as the sculpture is based on his observations of lions at London Zoo and he lived until he was 86.

Market Place was the site of Reading's weekly market from the 12th century right up until the 1970s. It is overlooked by St Laurence Church and the Simeon Monument (or Soane Obelisk). The monument was commissioned by a wealthy Readingite, Edward Simeon in 1804. .

The tower of the corn exchange is about the only remarkable building. In the market house restaurant/hotel you can have dinner in the old vault downstairs or on the rooftop terrace (though both can be pretty crowded/noisy).
