Sonning-on-Thames is a Domesday Book village with many fascinating artistic and historical connections. Terrence Rattigan the gay playwright lived here, and two members of the Bloomsbury group conducted a six month same sex affair in the village. It was the place where a 6 year old Queen of England was imprisoned. Find out more on a 60 minute guided walk of the village followed by a circular riverside walk of about 90 minutes. Possibility of eating together afterwards at the Coppa Club in Sonning or of coffee in the Mill at Sonning waterwheel bar.
