The Broadway

We strolled along the Broadway from the A4 through to Church Gate. There are quite a few pubs along the way. The Kings Head the first as you enter the Broadway. It says best traditional pub in Thatcham, my Dad said he'll let me know. There are other pubs and meeting places in Thatcham too. 

The Millenium Monument on the Broadway depicts some of the notable dates in Thatcham’s long history. The area has been occupied continuously from prehistoric times, and is listed in the Guinness Book of records as the oldest continuously inhabited place in England. (Taken from Town Guide)

Millenium Monument
The Broadway Green shown below hosts town events and the weekly market. The War memorial was here once but this has since been moved to a location on the A4.
