The Rose & Thistle pub, on Argyle Road near Reading West Station, has become an asset of community value (ACV), joining 10 other sites currently on the Reading Borough Council (RBC) list.

Wishing someone a “happy new year” feels a bit odd, to say the least, during a pandemic and its resulting economic crisis.
It’s made worse by a government incapable of providing relief to individuals and state, county and local governments, and, through them, first responders, teachers, doctors, nurses and others risking their health in support of others.
WHAT a year it is has been! These past 12 months have been unlike any other - and maybe it s just us, but 2020 felt like an awful lot longer than the 366 days the calendar claims it has been. It can be hard to recall what the world was like back when people could shake hands, not have to guess how far away two metres is while out and about, and the sight of a crowd was not cause for concern. So the Chronicle has taken a look back at some of the highs and lows of this year. First we look back to the first half of the year.
