Pipers Island
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pipers Island is a small island in the English River Thames, on the reach above Caversham Lock. It is located close to the centre of the town of Reading and immediately adjacent to Caversham Bridge, a road bridge that links that town to its suburb of Caversham.
Pipers Island is entirely occupied by a public house and restaurant called The Island, and by moorings for an associated boat hire and cruise business. Pipers Island can be accessed on foot by way of a short footbridge and staircase that connects the island to the centre of Caversham Bridge. There is no vehicular access onto Pipers Island.
