The Edge of Town

Reading is a town that is too big for its Borough. South of the Thames it has expanded east and west into the neighbouring Berkshire authorities of Wokingham and Newbury. North of the river however, Oxfordshire is having none of it, and suburban development stops dead all along the county line. Those trees are in Oxfordshire.
