Coronavirus infection rates across Berkshire continue to fluctuate but some neighbourhoods have seen a huge increase in cases, according to government statistics.

Cases in areas such as Slough have remained high for a number of months, leading to tier three restrictions being enforced in the area.

Across Berkshire cases have continued to surge in many areas, like Wokingham and College Town.

Using local neighbourhood data from the Government's coronavirus dashboard we are able to shed some light on which neighbourhoods Covid-19 is spreading fastest in.

The data is part of a seven-day rolling rate of new cases, which ended on December 1 - the day before the second national lockdown was lifted.

The areas are divided up into Middle Layer Super Output Areas (MSOAs), so do not match up to council wards.

Areas with fewer than three cases are not shown by the Government's website, in order to protect people's identities.
