Bracknell is a town in the Bracknell Forest borough of the English county of Berkshire. It lies 11 miles to the south-east of Reading, and 10 miles southwest of Windsor. The town is surrounded, on the east and south, by the vast expanse of Swinley Woods and Crowthorne Woods.
Bracknell has only three ancient buildings; all of them are actually pubs. The best to discover whilst in Bracknell is the Old Manor, a beautiful 17th century brick manor house complete with priest hole overlooking one of the bars. It is said to have secret passages connecting to various locations. Bracknell Church was built in the 1850s and is worth exploring.
