Welcome to our site

For over 700 years, a small chapel has stood at the eastern end of Thatcham on the main London to Bath Road. The chapel is one of the oldest buildings in West Berkshire and is a Grade I Listed Building. In 2004, the Thatcham (Old Bluecoat School) Charity was established with the aim of raising funds to repair the building and then operate it for the benefit of the community of Thatcham. This site documents our progress and describes how you can get involved.
