Poplar Island is an island in the River Thames belonging to Oxfordshire adjacent to Reading, Berkshire.[1][2]
The island is on the reach above Caversham Lock near Tilehurst and Appletree Eyot is very close to it. The two islands are in the middle of the river, so that navigation goes to each side of them according to the rules of the river. Poplar Island is densely covered by trees.[3]
