Description

Having crossed London Road you turn into Oak Avenue, which is the eastern end of the North Wokingham Distributor Road, opened in 2022. The road connects the new housing developments in north Wokingham as well as allowing traffic to avoid the town centre.
On the right you will see the Oakingham Belle public house. This version of the town’s name was used by mapmakers in the 18th and 19th centuries, giving rise to the belief that it derived from the oaks in Windsor Forest, of which the area was once a part. In fact Wokingham has always been the correct name since first recorded in the 12thC.
Just to add to the oak theme, you have Catkin House and Acorn House a few doors up from the pub.
