It seems a fitting picture to conclude this selection of photographs and illustrate the pace of... [more]

Wokingham and Bracknell Photographic Memories

The Hope and Anchor, seen here on the right, has changed little in the present day, but now includes the small gabled building on its left, which had been a blacksmiths for many years. Today the British Legion hall will be found to the rear of the next building along, which in this photograph bears the name 'Wokingham Ex-Servicemen's Club'.
