Reading Golf Course 12th green
The most difficult hole, the 12th, culminates in this green in the extreme southwest corner of the course. It plays down into Highdown Bottom and is 472 yards long. Sometimes one plays golf in good weather, but not today.

He could hit this ball right out of the county
The golfer taking the putt is standing on the 5th green in Oxfordshire but behind the photographer lies Berkshire. The 5th hole is a beautiful downhill par 4 of 325 yards. It's the easiest on the course. Behind the fence and up the steep sides of Highdown Bottom is the par 3, 6th hole. Just 136 yards but a challenging shot to the green, which is well protected by bunkers S.I. 16.

On the bridleway to Tanners Lane
Looking north, gentle climb up past the golf course on the right. This tree would have made quite a thud when it fell. Not surprised the cut section was left pretty much in situ. The bridleways around these parts are very muddy from the recent wet weather.

Entrance to the golf course
The footpath entrance to the golf course, with a notice which says "You are now entering the Reading golf course. For your own safety please keep to left of the fairway and be aware of golfers coming towards you". To which I would add three comments:
1) Thank you golfers for thinking of walkers.
2) Consider that not all walkers necessarily know what a fairway is.
3) I'd be more concerned about golf balls coming towards me, not golfers.
