These photos of Bracknell bridge both the old town and the new town. The Southern Industrial Area is beyond the famed Twin Bridges roundabout crossed by the railway just before the station. The New Town was one of several around the country designed to be populated by people moving away from the cities.
Bracknell had a modernistic approach as to its design but neighbouring Wokingham has remained free of tall buildings, towers and skyscrapers.
