Pub and church, Ford's Farm
The Kennet Valley Free church is a relatively recent building, it was not there when I was living in Ford's Farm from 1991 to 1996. The pub behind is now called the Happy Pea! I cannot remember its previous name, but it used to be an uninspired estate pub that I went into once.

Bus Link, Underwood Road, 1982
It was a condition of the development of the Fords Farm and Calcot housing estates that a link with the existing bus route 25 should be provided, but that other motor traffic should be excluded to prevent rat-running through residential areas. This installation with rising barriers may well be unique in the UK.
This is one of a series of views featuring buses in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=2114547&displayclass=slide

Extreme Bus Lane
Reading buses are determined to keep other traffic off their bus lane.
This friendly device is called a sump breaker according to the warning notices, and presumably trashes your car if you are so naughty as to stray onto bus territory.
Even passing bicycles are aimed well clear of it.

The A4 enters Reading
Because of its ultimate destination to the west, the A4 is also called the Bath Road especially when it enters urban areas.

The Bath Road fringed by trees, Calcot, Reading
Deceptive: it's not open country yet. There's a golf course, Calcott Park, on the right and residential estates on the left.
