Horseshoe Bridge

Highlight • Historical Site

At Kennet Mouth, the point where the River Kennet finally meets the Thames, a bridge was built by Brunel alongside the bridge carrying his Great Western Railway over the Kennet. This was primarily intended to take barge towing horses across the Kennet. Because of its shape it became popularly known as the Horseshoe Bridge, now being much used by walkers and cyclists. It has recently undertaken a major restore.

Reading Bridge over the River Thames

Highlight • Monument

Walk a few steps from the busy Vastern Road and you'll pop out onto the river near Reading Bridge. From here you can enjoy a riverside walk in either direction. It was built in 1923 using a revolutionary new material, reinforced concrete. At the time, it was the longest single span concrete bridge in the country.
