Local Information
Shinfield Village is a charming and well-connected area with a blend of historic and modern amenities. At the heart of the village is School Green, a hub of community life that features the village green, local pubs, shops, and the Shinfield Primary School, along with recreation grounds for leisure activities. The historic Shinfield St. Mary's Church, located on Church Lane, adds a touch of heritage to the area, sitting on the north-west ridge of the village.
For those seeking more extensive amenities, Lower Earley is nearby, offering a range of facilities including superstores, a petrol station, takeaways, and restaurants. Shinfield is particularly attractive to commuters due to its convenient access to major transport routes, including the M4, A33, and A329m. While the local shops provide for day-to-day needs, larger shopping expeditions can be made to Wokingham or Reading, with Reading's Oracle Shopping Centre offering a wide variety of retail options.

Additionally, Junction 11 of the M4 offers easy access to Heathrow Airport, Central London, the West Country, and the M25, making Shinfield a strategic location for both local living and broader travel.
