15. The Star, 56 Peach Street, c 1880 – 1909, now Wokingham DÉCOR.
The Star Inn was directly opposite
what is now known as
Easthampstead Road, which was
until 1886 Star Lane (hence the
Star Lane railway crossing).
The inn closed in 1909 and has
since been demolished and its site
taken over by this parade of new
shops.

of which this was one. The report identified
