PLACE NAMES




Charvil


Charvil is a village and civil parish in Berkshire. The village is 3 miles (5 km) east of the centre of Reading on the A4 road to Maidenhead, between Sonning and Twyford. The 2011 Census recorded the parish's population as 3,042.

The area was mostly farmland until the 1950s, since which time the population has increased significantly. Charvil is bisected by the new Bath Road (A4).

Charvil has two pubs: The Wee Waif and The Heron on the Ford (formerly The Lands End).

Charvil's community centre was built in 1952 as the Church of England church of Saint Patrick but was deconsecrated in 2011. It was later demolished to make room for a housing project in 2019. Charvil is part of the ecclesiastical parish of St Andrew, Sonning.

The land between Charvil and Twyford is a nature reserve with footpaths beside the River Loddon and around lakes formed from former gravel pits.
