Traditional Latin Mass in Reading, Berkshire

Although England has had permission, in the wake of the Second Vatican Council, to celebrate the Traditional Latin Mass since 1971 (vs. 1984 or 1988 for the rest of the world), it's been very difficult to find a Latin Mass in the Old Rite. It turns out that one of the few churches in Southern England that offers the Traditional Latin Mass on a weekly basis is in a town that I visit regularly: Reading, which is in the county of Berkshire and in the Diocese of Portsmouth.

The second irony is that the Church is called Christ the King. The Latin Mass in our home parish is offered by the Institute of Christ the King. Small world.
