caption_attribution_description: English: King's Road, Reading, Berkshire. This is the scene at "Cemetery Junction", where the A329 and A4 cross. The Italianate building is a Wycliffe Baptist Church. The small brick building is the Arthur Hill swimming pool.
context_page_description: Kings Road Baptist Church was founded in Reading, Berkshire, United Kingdom in 1640 or 1641 according to its own internal history; there were certainly Baptists in Reading by 1652, which is when representatives from that town began a Baptist Association with Henley and Abingdon. The church's forebears moved from Hosier Street to Kings Road in 1834 and remained in existence under that name until 1979. In that year the congregation moved to a new church building and was renamed Abbey Baptist Church.
  The old Kings Road Baptist Church site is now the location of the Reading Central Library on Kings Road. Abbey Baptist Church may be found around the back of the same block, on Abbey Square. Wycliffe Baptist Church, sited a mile further out of town on Kings Road, was founded in 1881 by Kings Road Baptist Church.
