EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured on the 14th of February, 1967, this remarkable print showcases the grand opening of a new shopping centre near Prospect Park in Reading, Berkshire. Stepping back in time to the vibrant era of the 1960s, we are transported to an architectural marvel that revolutionized retail experiences for locals. The bustling scene is filled with excitement as shoppers explore a variety of shops and boutiques within this modern complex. The photograph also reveals a charming pub nestled within the shopping centre's premises. With its inviting facade and neon sign proudly displaying 'off sales, ' it served as a popular watering hole for both residents and visitors alike. This public house became an integral part of community life, offering respite after long hours spent browsing through stores or simply providing a social hub where friends could gather over drinks. As we admire this snapshot from Memory Lane Prints, it serves as a reminder of how urban landscapes have evolved over time. The juxtaposition between traditional brick buildings and contemporary architecture exemplifies the changing face of Reading during this period. This image not only captures an iconic moment in local history but also highlights the significance of commercial development in shaping communities. Preserved by BT's dedication to archiving historical moments like these, we are fortunate enough to witness glimpses into our past that continue to inspire us today.
