Overview
Quakers in the UK are grouped into many local Meetings; this book outlines the history of Reading Meeting and its place within the town, and of the Meeting House itself.
Close to Reading’s busy centre, off London Street, stands the Friends Meeting House and burial ground. Austere, grand and yet welcoming, it can be both a place of challenge and a place of rest. But a Meeting is the people itself, not the building, and through overlapping generations this keeps a continuity across 350 years. This book outlines the long and at times surprisingly turbulent and moving story of the Reading Quaker Meeting.
