Is there a sewage works there, because when I used to work at Black Box (Basingstoke Road) the locals used to refer to the Whitley Whiff a lot?  
And what is that erection, may I ask?

Yes, the sewage works has recently been demolished and moved across the A33 near the Speedway stadium, where the old sewage works was they have built loads of flats, you know where Madjeski is, right near there. Move in, you are within walking distance of KFC

ive been looking at places around thatcham just outside of reading. im going to be living in reading for upto 6 months my place is right near reading police station which is convenient for the time being but i dont think id like to buy in reading.
Coming down from manchester i dont have much idea yet but around newbury area there seems like some nice places to live.

No wonder you don't want to live in Reading, I thought those flats were full of single mothers? Thats a nice combo single mothers & Police officers sharing flats
