Welcome to Three Mile Cross

Three Mile Cross is a small village located in the county of Berkshire, England. The village is situated approximately 5 miles south of Reading and is known for its rich history and beautiful countryside. The village was named after a milestone that was located three miles from Reading, which marked the distance to London. The village has a population of around 2,000 people and is a popular destination for tourists who are looking to explore the surrounding countryside.

One of the most notable landmarks in Three Mile Cross is the St. Peter's Church, which dates back to the 12th century. The church is a Grade II listed building and is known for its beautiful architecture and stunning stained glass windows. The church is still in use today and is a popular destination for visitors who are interested in the history of the village.

Another popular attraction in Three Mile Cross is the Wellington Country Park, which is located just outside the village. The park covers an area of over 350 acres and is home to a wide range of wildlife, including deer, foxes, and badgers. The park is also home to a number of walking trails, picnic areas, and a children's play area, making it a great destination for families who are looking to spend a day in the great outdoors.
