About

Arborfield & Garrison sits on the eastern edge of the Wokingham borough, characterised by its transition from a historic military base to a new residential community. The area is defined by the large Arborfield Garrison development, where former Army barracks and technical facilities are being replaced with modern housing estates, a secondary school, and local shops.

A central feature is the preserved Arborfield Cross, with its traditional village pub and church, which provides a contrast to the new construction. The former parade ground is now a public green space at the heart of the development, lined with pathways that connect the older and newer parts of the area.
