Great Hollands is a residential area to the west of Bracknell within the unitary borough of Bracknell Forest in Berkshire. Largely built on former agricultural land during Bracknell’s post‑war expansion of the 1960s and 1970s, the neighbourhood comprises a mix of council and private housing, local shopping parades and pockets of green space, and sits a short drive from the town centre and the wider Thames Valley employment corridor.
Residents use a cluster of community facilities - primary schools, a community centre and recreational grounds - and benefit from nearby cultural venues such as South Hill Park alongside the leisure and retail offer in central Bracknell. The area has a strong local identity with active resident groups, a diverse population and close economic links to the business parks that characterise this part of the county.
