Tilehurst (West Berkshire)Tilehurst Birch Copse

Tilehurst Birch Copse

RG30 4 / RG31 4 / RG31 5 / RG31 7

Family-friendly

The central part of Tilehurst, mainly residential streets of 1930s and post-war semis. The Triangle shopping area on School Road is the local hub with a Co-op, takeaways, and a few independents. Prospect Park is the big draw, a proper municipal park with sports pitches, a cafe, and views over Reading. It's straightforward family suburbia. Tilehurst station is walkable from much of this area, which matters now the Elizabeth line runs through.
