Arborfield is a village in Berkshire about south-east of Reading, about west of Wokingham. It is about west of the sister village of Arborfield Cross and the two villages have become collectively known as Arborfield, with no signs marking their boundary. The village is on the A327 road linking Reading with Farnborough. Arborfield is in the civil parish of Arborfield and Newland, which is in the district of Wokingham unitary authority. ==Churches== The present Church of England parish church of Saint Bartholomew is a Gothic Revival building designed by J Picton and built in 1863. The new building replaces an older St Bartholomew's church that had been built in the 13th century and altered probably early in the 18th century. When the new church was consecrated the roof of the old one was removed and later layers of plaster stripped from the interior walls, revealing Medieval wall paintings of ''"figure subjects and geometrical and masonry patterns"'' that ''"covered the walls"''. These have now been lost and the church ruins have greatly deteriorated. The army garrison (below) has its own garrison church, a 20th-century building dedicated to Saint Eligius. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Arborfield」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
