You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.199.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 12:56, 12 May 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Newtown, Reading''' is a [[suburb]] of the town of [[Reading, Berkshire|Reading]] in [[Berkshire]], [[England]]. It is situated in [[East Reading]] between the [[Cemetery Junction, Reading|Cemetery Junction]] and the [[River Kennet]].  The population is a socially and ethnically diverse mix of families, professionals and [[Reading University]] students.

==History==
In 1822, Joseph Huntley started his first bakery (later to become the [[Huntley & Palmers]] biscuit factory) in London street. By 1846 he opened the King's Road Factory, which led to a dramatic increase in the number of employees needed over the following decades. The terraced houses of New Town, Reading were built from the 1870s and its proximity to the factory made it a popular place for the employees to live. 
		 
In 1875 George Palmer gave 14 acres of King's Meadows, beside the River Thames and in 1889 an additional 49 acres of land, which is now known as Palmer Park.

==Geography==
The northern boundary is the [[River Kennet]] which becomes the [[Kennet and Avon Canal]]. The area around the confluence of the River Kennet and the [[River Thames]] is known as Kennetmouth and is a popular area for recreation.  One landmark is the historic Horseshoe Bridge which was formerly used by barge horses but is now a footbridge. [[Reading globe groups|Newtown Globe Group]] has adopted a small area of land at Kennetmouth and has erected a seat, an interpretation board and a [[mosaic]] depicting the meeting of the rivers. The other, an early [[Isambard Kingdom Brunel]] railway bridge.

At its western edge close to the town centre is the Financial Services company The Prudential where the residential options are modern large apartments and The Orts road Council estate.
The area is the eastern boundary of [[Reading Borough Council]] with Wokingham District Council. Residentially, it is composed, at the eastern end, of terraced houses which were originally built for the employees of [[Huntley and Palmers]] and Sutton's Seeds and they feature the distinctive polychromatic brickwork where one of the best kept examples is School Terrace and the Victorian Newtown Primary School.

==Community==
The area is socially, ethnically and religiously diverse.
It is home to St Johns and St Stephen's Church of England and primary school, Wycliffe Baptist church, Sri Guru Singh Sabha Gurdwara and several small Islamic centres. 
It has an active community both environmentally (being home to Reading's first Green party Councillor<ref name="green">((Cite web |url=http://reading.greenparty.org.uk/localsites/reading.html |title=Rob White |access-date=6 September 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110820190725/http://reading.greenparty.org.uk/localsites/reading.html |archive-date=20 August 2011 |url-status=dead ))</ref> and for families with the local children's centre.<ref>[http://www.eastreadingchildrenscentres.co.uk East Reading children's centre]</ref>

==Education==
Local schools include New Town Primary School and St John's Primary. Both are in the area of Newtown. The closest comprehensive secondary schools are Maiden Erlegh in [[Earley]] and Bulmershe in [[Woodley, Berkshire|Woodley]].
