More about this scene
The impressive building just right of centre was once Berkshire's old County Hall. Christopher Kempster, a master mason who had worked for Sir Christopher Wren, built it between 1678 and 1682. Today it houses the town's museum. On days of royal celebration, buns are thrown from the balconied roof; this tradition dates back to the coronation of George III.
