Twyford is a large village and civil parish in the borough of Wokingham, in Berkshire, lying between Reading and Maidenhead. The name comes from the historic crossing of two fords and the River Loddon runs through the area, giving pleasant riverside walks; a compact historic core with timber‑framed buildings and St Mary’s Church sits alongside modern housing.
Its railway station offers fast services into London and Reading and there are good road links to the M4, so it functions as both a commuter centre and a local hub with independent shops, pubs, schools and community events. The mix of village character, accessible transport and nearby countryside makes it a popular place for families and professionals alike.
