Three Mile Cross, Berkshire Weather
About Three Mile Cross, Berkshire
Three Mile Cross retains the quiet character of a place that once served as a vital staging post for travellers navigating the road between Reading and the coast. It lies 3.4 miles south of Reading (from Reading: bearing 180°T, OS grid SU 715 677), and is situated south-south-east of Great Lea Common village. The landscape here unfolds in low, unassuming folds of earth, where the light often catches the silvered surface of Burghfield Brook as it winds its path through the nearby fields. Mary Russell Mitford, the celebrated author of Our Village, immortalised the daily life and seasonal shifts of Three Mile Cross in her sketches, capturing the essence of a society defined by its local lanes and gardens. Residents today often find respite in the quietude of The Parklands Suitable Alternative Natural Greenspace, where the open fields offer a broad view of the horizon. The architecture remains a patchwork of eras, with timber-framed cottages standing alongside brick dwellings that have weathered the damp Berkshire air for generations. A subtle stillness persists in the air here, undisturbed by the proximity of larger transit routes, grounding the identity of Three Mile Cross in its long-standing rural roots.
