On the right we have the red bricks of the Horse and Jockey pub, followed by Culham House and the junction with Carey Street. Thereafter the view leaves SU7173. The road is the A4155 and is seen here climbing up to the junction with Tilehurst Road. The rather grand houses mostly date from the earlier part of the 19th century. Most, if not all, of the buildings are listed.
