The Green Space

This gallery traces the development of Reading's environment, landscape and wildlife, using hundreds of geology and natural history specimens. The focal point is a royal red deer stag. There is a selection of objects that can be handled, making this space particularly suitable for family groups. Follow the story of our local environment from 400 million years ago to the present day. Find out:

  • What was here before people existed?
  • How did Reading's landscape and environment develop?
