A STROLL through Reading’s history will take place on Sunday afternoon, thanks to Walk Reading.

The group is hosting an exploration of the town’s role in conflict, including The English Civil War, the Glorious Revolution and the Battle of Broad Street.

They will also look at the impact of the Napoleonic Wars and the Anglo-Afghan War, as well as the First World War.

The event starts at 2pm, and places should be booked in advance.
