Two delights in one.
Silchester is a commuter village lying between Reading and Basingstoke, with a very nice pub on an unusually large village green.
And Calleva Atrebatum is a sight to take you back two millennia, to a time when this was one of the most important Roman settlements in southern Britain. |

| Pros: | "Calleva Attrebatum is impressive and Silchester is almost the ideal English village" | | Cons: | "A long walk from the nearest public transport" | | In A Nutshell: | "One small step and one giant leap back in time" |

Love that history. Do hope you return, I note it's been almost 6 months. Still looking forward to a cuppa. Cheers, Ian | craic Tue Apr 8, 2003 08:09 UTC
