A History of Woodley Talk

with Ann Smith

Woodley grew from a village to a suburb of Reading in the 20th century. But it is not just another village absorbed by Reading. It’s famous for Miles Aircraft and The Aerodrome, and there is more history than you can see. This talk will show the hidden history of Woodley. Ann Smith researched Woodley history with the local U3A groups, and edited and published a book on the subject.

After the talk, tea/coffee and cake will be available (included in the price). Pre-booking is preferred, but you can pay on the door, if there are spaces available.  

2 - 3.30pm
