THE HISTORY of Caversham can be explored through a new walking tour.

Terry Dixon will be leading the exploration of the village on Tuesday, May 23.

Starting near Caversham Bridge from 9.50am, and running until around noon, it will give participants the chance to learn about some listed buildings and where the old police station was sited.

The walk will also take participants through Caversham Court Gardens and up to The Mount, where they can take a break and enjoy the views.

The walk will then head downhill to the centre of Caversham.

Places cost £5 per adult and £1 per child over five. Proceeds will be split equally between Home-Start Reading, a charity that supports families with young children, and the Friends of Caversham Court Gardens, a group that helps to maintain the gardens.
