• Frog Hall has its original name - Waterloo Lodge (linked by name to Waterloo Road).
• The only 3 marked buildings are Waterloo Lodge, Buckhurst Farm (not named) and the Three
Frogs.
To add to this, I'll next show FHD, in 1883, in the context of the whole of the east side of
Wokingham ............
Now we can see how isolated the hall/lodge was and the Three Frogs was out in the sticks - I
wonder where their custom came from?
The railway from Reigate to Reading was opened in 1849, while "our" railway, from Staines, was
opened in 1856 and a joint station in Reading with the Great Western completed two years later.
