With the number of chimneys on the Huntley & Palmers site, this may well be factory coal.

This might be the Huntley and Palmer shunting engine in the factory sidings. There seems to large amounts of coal stacked between the sidings below and above this location.

Freight connecting lines going under the GWR mainline. This route is shortly to return to use as part of the modernisation of Reading station to allow trains from the north side to join the Guildford/Waterloo lines without crossing the mainline from Paddington on the level.

Reading Prison... perhaps better know as Reading Jail as in the 'Ballad of Reading Jail'.

Just for info....started in 1844, completed and opened in about 1846. Massively over budget at £46,000. Will move its last prisoner out in November 2013 and close on 20/12/2013.

Might get a 'stay of execution' but unlikely.

In 1920 the terminal station in Reading, that later become the Southern station, belonged to the South Eastern and Chatham Railway. It was at the end of the line from Redhill via Guildford. Trains of the London and South Western Railway from Waterloo to Reading also terminated here having joined the SECR's line at Wokingham. The station was closed in September 1965 and the traffic moved to new platforms at the south-eastern corner of the main Reading station in a long over due rationalisation. The site was cleared and developed for offices.
