  • Reading Blue Coat School
    BLHA Newsletter Chairman's Corner This will be the first Newsletter edited by John Chapman. I know he has many good ideas for its future, and would like to wish him well. As a well-known military historian, his servi- ces must be in great demand at present, so taking on this task cannot have been easy. Members of the committee are particularly keen to let the member societies know what the Association is doing, and what it can do for them. We want the Newsletter to be read as widely as possible by members of member societies. And we would like to hear what the societies are doing. There are around 40 of them, but we only hear regularly from about a dozen in the Newsletter. A recent change in the committee has been brought about by Elias Kupfermann volunteering his services. He is well-known in Windsor, Maidenhead and Slough as a local historian, and I would like to welcome him. There are a number of jobs which need to be done, and I hope he soon finds his niche, and can be formally elected at the next A.G.M. Incidentally, I notice that the Constitution of the Association says that the officers and committee members should “normally” retire after five years. To my surprise, I find that I was first elected in 2009, so I’ve already done my five years! And as for most of the rest of the committee . It needs thinking about. I was pleased to be invited to present the Berkshire History Prize this year: please see the short report and photograph later in this issue.

  • THE OLD REDINGENSIAN Spring 2007
    THE OLD REDINGENSIAN Spring 2007 Henry VII King of England Benefactor of Reading School 1486 The Presidentʼs Letter I am delighted to have been accepted as President of the OR Association for 2007 and to contribute to the institution that is Reading School. In so doing, I am conscious that, whilst I have been a Council member for the last two years, I have been very much “in absentia” due to work commitments. I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself to the membership and outline my thoughts upon our direction for this coming year. For background, I was a pupil at Reading School from 1978-85 and infl uenced by several Masters who are now pillars of OR life such as John Oakes, Bob Lewis and Mike Evans. I ended my time at the School as Captain of West House and Cadet RSM of the CCF. Commissioned into the Army in 1987, I have served all over the World and currently command 13 Air Assault Support Regiment, The Royal Logistic Corps, based in Colchester. We are part of the Air Assault Brigade and deployed on operations in Afghanistan last summer. I am married to Jackie and have two children, Adam who currently attends Colchester Royal Grammar School, and Gemma, who will start at the Colchester Girls High School (also a grammar) this September. In my time on the Council I have been impressed by is very positive about harnessing our support along the selfl essness and commitment of a determined with Governors, parents and the Foundation to realise band of Association members who organise and further benefi ts for the School.

Introduction 1.1 On 4th September 2013 the Government announced the closure of Reading Prison with effect from 20th December 2013. It closed early in 2014 following the approval of orders by Parliament. The Ministry of Justice will be responsible for the subsequent disposal of the site. This report contains initial research of the site and outlines a development framework for the future use and development of the site. 1.2 Reading Prison is a very important site within the central area of Reading. It is a very historically significant site. In its entirety, it is part of the Reading Abbey and Civil War earthworks Scheduled Ancient Monument. There is a high potential for archaeological remains from the Bronze Age through to the period of the Vikings in the 9th Century, as well as medieval and later interest. The site was part of the extensive grounds of the nationally important Reading Abbey. The site of the Abbey, founded in 1121 encompassed the whole of the Prison Site. Part of the Abbey Church extended into the north-western part of the Prison site. It is likely that the Prison site would have contained various associated buildings as well as areas that might have been used as a cemetery.
