Explore Reading Old, a fine specimen of a Victorian garden cemetery, and find out about some of its permanent residents. Inspired by Horrible Histories with voice overs from local budding and established performers and community volunteers, the audio guide takes you on a tour around this beautiful, peaceful site. From people in workhouses to mansions and everyone in between, including headteachers, suffragists, sauce makers, football club directors, record-breaking motorcyclists and many more who are dying to tell their stories and share glimpses of Reading's past with you. Victorian attire for explorations is optional!

Great. Really enjoyed it.
An amazing tour, very good to spend an interesting sunny afternoon exploring the history of Reading's residents back in the day, learning about their life, families, occupations and thoughts.
