This annual event makes good use of an unknown part of Reading's waterways. This is the River Kennet past the former Huntley and Palmers biscuit factory, which was to the left. The island is called Chocolate Island, preserving its heritage. Above the boats and the many craft stalls can be made out the walls of Reading prison.
