Sonning Eye
A view to the east of Caversham from Playhatch The view from Foxhill Lane. The crop is oil-seed rape. The first flowers are just starting to show. We are looking down on the Henley Road at its junction with Caversham Park Road with meadows and a former gravel pit on the floodplain beyond.

Former gravel pit, Sonning. The gravel pits occupy a large swath of the flood plain between Sonning Eye and Caversham. They are now used for watersports and fishing and attract a lot of wildfowl. The building to the right is a new rowing centre. The gasworks is in the east end of Reading, a couple of miles away. For the same view in winter see 657828.
