About Reading

Reading is the county town of Berkshire, where the River Kennet joins the Thames. King Henry I founded Reading Abbey in 1121; its ruins and gateway stand beside Forbury Gardens, where the Maiwand Lion has stood since 1886.

In the centre, the Victorian Town Hall, home to Reading Museum, stands next to St Laurence's Church, and Reading Minster is a few minutes' walk away. Our Reading prints include the Abbey Gateway and the Town Hall as posters, and Christmas cards of the Town Hall with St Laurence's.

Give them somewhere they love.

Their home town, a favourite holiday or the place where you met. Make a print of Reading with a photograph and a message from you.
