Arborfield Cross is a village in Berkshire, built at a cross-roads (now a roundabout) on the A327 road a mile and haldf to the east of its sister village, Arborfield. It is some three miles southeast of the large town of Reading, three miles west of Wokingham.

Latterly, both Arborfield and Arborfield Cross have become collectively known as Arborfield and there is no obvious division between them.

There is a mixture of housing, ranging from beautiful 15th century cottages through to modern housing.[1] The local public house is the Swan[2] which is the centre of village community life. And The Bull Inn.[3] There is a village stores and a garage where drivers can get their cars washed.

One Saturday in the summer there has been, until 2010 a charity gig in the park: Rock in the Rec.[4]
