About

Calcot South sits within the western suburbs of Reading in the West Berkshire unitary area. The southern edge is defined by the A4 Bath Road and the M4 Junction 12 sliproads, where a cluster of supermarkets, car showrooms and light industrial units line the road. Housing is a mix of post-war estates and newer developments served by local primary schools, a community centre and playing fields. Bus routes link the area to Reading town centre and to towns on the A4 and M4 corridors, making commuter journeys straightforward.

Green space in the southern sector includes small parks, playing pitches and allotments tucked between residential streets. Local footpaths run alongside service roads and provide direct access to the Bath Road retail stretch and to nearby employment areas without crossing the motorway. Day-to-day life in Calcot South is shaped by those road connections: the M4 junction and the long straight of the A4 give the neighbourhood a pronounced transport focus and a steady flow of passing trade.
