Places to see in ( Wantage - UK )
Wantage is a market town and civil parish in the Vale of the White Horse, Oxfordshire, England. The town is on Letcombe Brook, about 8 miles south-west of Abingdon, 10 miles west of Didcot, 15 miles (24 km) south-west of Oxford and 14 miles (23 km) north north-west of Newbury.
Historically part of Berkshire, it is notable as the birthplace of King Alfred the Great in 849. In 1974 the area administered by Berkshire County Council was greatly reduced, and Wantage, in common with other territories South of the River Thames, became part of a considerably enlarged Oxfordshire.
Wantage was a small Roman settlement but the origin of the toponym is somewhat uncertain. It is generally thought to be from an Old English phrase meaning decreasing river. King Alfred the Great was born at the royal palace there in the 9th century. Wantage appears in the Domesday Book of 1086. Its value was £61 and it was in the king's ownership until Richard I passed it to the Earl of Albemarle in 1190.
In 1877 he paid for a marble statue of King Alfred by Count Gleichen to be erected in Wantage market place, where it still stands today. He also donated the Victoria Cross Gallery to the town. This contained paintings by Louis William Desanges depicting deeds which led to the award of a number of VCs, including his own gained during the Crimean War. It is now a shopping arcade. Since 1848, Wantage has been home to the Community of Saint Mary the Virgin, one of the largest communities of Anglican nuns in the world. Wantage once had two breweries which were taken over by Morlands of Abingdon.
Wantage is at the foot of the Berkshire Downs escarpment in the Vale of the White Horse. There are gallops at Black Bushes and nearby villages with racing stables at East Hendred, Letcombe Bassett, Lockinge and Uffington. Wantage includes the suburbs of Belmont to the west and Charlton to the east. Grove to the north is still just about detached and is a separate parish. Wantage parish stretches from the northern edge of its housing up onto the Downs in the south, covering Chain Hill, Edge Hill, Wantage Down, Furzewick Down and Lattin Down. The Edgehill Springs rise between Manor Road and Spike Lodge Farms and the Letcombe Brook flows through the town. Wantage is home to the Vale and Downland Museum. There is a large market square containing a statue of King Alfred, surrounded by shops some with 18th-century facades. Quieter streets radiate from it, including one towards the large Church of England parish church. Wantage is the Alfredston of Thomas Hardy's Jude the Obscure.
Wantage is at the crossing of the B4507 valley road, the A417 road between Reading and Cirencester and the A338 road between Hungerford (and junction 14 of the M4 motorway) and Oxford. Bus services link Wantage with Oxford as well as other towns and villages including Abingdon, Didcot, Faringdon and Grove. Stagecoach in Oxfordshire provide the main services between Wantage and Oxford with up to three buses per hour Monday to Saturday and up to two buses per hour on Sunday's and bank holidays, operated under Stagecoach's luxury Stagecoach Gold brand. Stagecoach provides a late-night service on Friday and Saturday evenings with buses running to Oxford until 2am and buses from Oxford to Wantage until 3am.
Wantage does not have a railway station; Didcot Parkway, 8 miles to the east, is the nearest station, with services towards London, Bristol and Cardiff. The Great Western Mainline is just north of Grove (2 miles North of Wantage) where the former Wantage Road railway station used to be. It was closed during the Beeching cuts in 1964. The Wantage Tramway used to link Wantage with Wantage Road station. The tramway's Wantage terminus was in Mill Street and its building survives, but little trace remains of the route. Wantage has been the site of a church since at least the 10th century and the present Church of England parish church of Saints Peter and Paul dates from the 13th century, with many additions since. SS Peter and Paul also contains seventeen 15th-century misericords.

Early Morning Walk in a Small English Village - Kingston Lisle
Kingston Lisle is a small village located in the Vale of White Horse district of Oxfordshire, England. The village has a long and rich history dating back to the Anglo-Saxon period.
The name Kingston is derived from the Old English words cyning (king) and tun (settlement), while Lisle is believed to have been added later as a reference to the de Lisle family, who held the manor during the Middle Ages.
During the Norman Conquest, Kingston Lisle was granted to William FitzOsbern, who was a close confidant of William the Conqueror. The village was then passed down to various noble families, including the de Lisle family and the Seymours.
In the 18th century, Kingston Lisle became part of the Faringdon estate, owned by the Pye family. The Pye family made significant improvements to the village, including the construction of a new manor house and the rebuilding of the village church.
Today, Kingston Lisle remains a small, picturesque village with a population of around 150 people. It is known for its beautiful countryside and historic buildings, including the church of St. John the Baptist, which dates back to the 13th century.

Wantage Walk: Town Centre【4K】
Located in the county of Oxfordshire, and around 15 miles southwest of Oxford, is the town of Wantage. Historically it was part of Berkshire until 1974.
The first recorded reference to the town goes back to the 8th century, where it was written as 'Wandesiege', allegedly deriving from Old English for 'decreasing river'.
In 849 AD Alfred the Great was born in Wantage. In 871 he became King of Wessex, and by 886 he was dubbed King of the Anglo-Saxons. His rule proved pivotal as he was able to limit the progress of the Viking invasions by establishing 'burhs' i.e. fortified settlements. Two of his children would continue in this regard, as his son Edward the Elder succeeded as King of the Anglo-Saxons in 899, while his daughter Æthelflæd became Queen of Mercia from 911. It was in the early 10th century that the Viking threat was largely subdued during the respective rule of these two siblings following the establishment of more burhs, particularly around the frontier of Mercia and the Danelaw, although it would return later. Alfred also revolutionised education by ensuring that it was conducted in English, thus not limiting it to Latin-speakers.
In 1246 a market charter was granted to Wantage by Henry III. At the heart of the town, and just west of the market place, is the Church of St Peter and St Paul. This dates from the late 13th century, with 15th century additions.
In 1875 the Wantage Tramway opened. This transported passengers and goods between the town and Wantage Road station, which was located in the neighbouring village of Grove, about two miles to the north. The tramway closed to passengers in 1925, and to goods in 1945. Wantage Road station closed in the 1960s as part of the Beeching cuts - a controversial scheme to encourage road travel by closing over 2,000 railway stations in Great Britain. Today, public transport to Wantage consists of direct buses from Oxford, Abingdon, Didcot, Faringdon and various local towns and villages.
Historically, Wantage was part of the county of Berkshire up until 1974 when, under local government reorganisation, it became part of Oxfordshire and the seat of the Vale of White Horse District Council.
Famous people from Wantage, aside from Alfred the Great, include jockey Lester Piggott.

Faringdon is a historic market town in the Vale of White Horse, Oxfordshire, England, about 18 miles southwest of Oxford, 10 miles northwest of Wantage, 34 miles northwest of Reading and 12 miles east-northeast of Swindon. The civil parish is formally called Great Faringdon, to distinguish it from Little Faringdon in West Oxfordshire. The 2011 Census recorded its population as 7,121.
It is a large parish, its lowest parts extending to the River Thames in the north and its highest ground reaching the Ridgeway in the south. It was the westernmost town in Berkshire until the 1974 boundary changes transferred it to the administrative county of Oxfordshire.
On 1 February 2004, Faringdon was granted Fairtrade Town status, becoming the first Fairtrade Town in South East England. Faringdon is the base for the Faringdon Enterprise Gateway, which is run by the South East England Development Agency to help and advise businesses in rural west Oxfordshire.
The town was granted a weekly market in 1218, and as a result came to be called Chipping Faringdon. The weekly market is still held today. King John also established an abbey in Faringdon in 1202, (probably on the site of Portwell House) but it soon moved to Beaulieu in Hampshire. In 1417 the aged Archbishop of Dublin, Thomas Cranley, died in Faringdon while journeying to London.
Just east of the town is Folly Hill or Faringdon Hill, a Greensand outcrop (at grid reference SU298957). In common with Badbury Hill to the west of the town, it has an ancient ditched defensive ring (hill fort). This was fortified by supporters of Matilda sometime during the Anarchy (1135–1141) – her campaign to claim the throne from King Stephen – but was soon razed to the ground by Stephen. Oliver Cromwell fortified it in his unsuccessful campaign to defeat the Royalist garrison at Faringdon House.
There is a manor house and estate, close to the edge of Faringdon, called Faringdon House. The original house was damaged during the civil war. Its owner at the time, Sir Robert Pye, who was a Royalist, was put under siege by his own son Robert who was a Parliamentarian colonel.
Faringdon is linked with Swindon and Oxford by the half-hourly 66 bus service run by Stagecoach in Swindon. Faringdon is linked with Wantage by the regular 67 bus service operated by Thames Travel. A 3.5 miles (5.6 km) Faringdon branch line was opened in 1864, between Faringdon and the Great Western Railway (GWR) at Uffington, with construction funded by the Faringdon Railway Company (bought outright by the GWR in 1886).

Places to go in Oxfordshire - National Trust Buscot Park, Faringdon
Come with us on a walk around National Trust Buscot Park near Faringdon in Oxfordshire.
Parking is free, and entrance to the gardens is free for National Trust members, £9 for non-members. Unlike many other National Trust properties, no advanced booking is required, just turn up on the day. The park is open from 2pm-6pm every day of the week. The house itself is not currently open to the public.
Please note, dogs are NOT permitted within the park.
We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Buscot Park, and spent much longer there than we expected to. We arrived shortly after 2pm, and stayed almost to closing time at 6pm. We loved the statues of the Terracotta Warriors, and the Egyptian themes elsewhere in the park. Buscot Park is a perfect place for a gentle afternoon stroll. There are no steep hills to climb, so good for all ages and abilities. We highly recommend a visit!

Faringdon Walk: Town Centre【4K】
Located in the county of Oxfordshire, and around 10 miles northeast of Swindon, is the town of Faringdon. Historically it was part of Berkshire, owing to it being south of the Thames, up until 1974 when the county borders changed.
In 1218 a market charter was granted to Faringdon during the reign of Henry III. The 800+ year-old market is predated by the Church of All Saints (seen from around the 5-and-a-half minute mark). The church dates from the 12th century, albeit with additions up until the 15th century, and is Grade I listed. A ghost story surrounds the churchyard, with alleged sightings of a headless naval officer who was said to have been decapitated by a cannon ball in the 17th or 18th century. Although official records suggest the man likely fitting the description died of natural causes!
One of Faringdon's oldest buildings, aside from the church, is the Old Town Hall. This is situated at the very centre of town, and was constructed in the 17th century in the aftermath of the English Civil War. Today it serves as an exhibitions and events venue.
In 1864 a railway station opened in Faringdon. This was the terminus of the Faringdon Branch, which led to Uffington Station in the village of the same name. Uffington formed part of the Great Western Main Line until 1964 when it succumbed to the Beeching closures - a controversial move to promote road travel by shutting down over 2,000 British stations. Faringdon Station had already closed to passengers by this point anyway, as its closure occurred back in 1951. Today, public transport to the town consists of direct buses from Oxford, Swindon, Wantage and various nearby settlements.
About half a mile east of the town centre is Lord Berners' Folly. This is a 30-metre/100ft brick tower, which was constructed in 1935 by Lord Gerald Wellesley for Lord Berners of Faringdon House. It is said to be the last folly tower to have been built in England. A folly tower refers to one which has been constructed for ornamental rather than practical reasons.

Wantage is a market town and civil parish in the Vale of the White Horse, Oxfordshire, England. The town is on Letcombe Brook, about 8 miles south-west of Abingdon, 10 miles west of Didcot, 15 miles (24 km) south-west of Oxford and 14 miles (23 km) north north-west of Newbury.
Historically part of Berkshire, it is notable as the birthplace of King Alfred the Great in 849. In 1974 the area administered by Berkshire County Council was greatly reduced, and Wantage, in common with other territories South of the River Thames, became part of a considerably enlarged Oxfordshire.
Wantage was a small Roman settlement but the origin of the toponym is somewhat uncertain. It is generally thought to be from an Old English phrase meaning decreasing river. King Alfred the Great was born at the royal palace there in the 9th century. Wantage appears in the Domesday Book of 1086. Its value was £61 and it was in the king's ownership until Richard I passed it to the Earl of Albemarle in 1190.
In 1877 he paid for a marble statue of King Alfred by Count Gleichen to be erected in Wantage market place, where it still stands today. He also donated the Victoria Cross Gallery to the town. This contained paintings by Louis William Desanges depicting deeds which led to the award of a number of VCs, including his own gained during the Crimean War. It is now a shopping arcade. Since 1848, Wantage has been home to the Community of Saint Mary the Virgin, one of the largest communities of Anglican nuns in the world. Wantage once had two breweries which were taken over by Morlands of Abingdon.
Wantage is at the foot of the Berkshire Downs escarpment in the Vale of the White Horse. There are gallops at Black Bushes and nearby villages with racing stables at East Hendred, Letcombe Bassett, Lockinge and Uffington. Wantage includes the suburbs of Belmont to the west and Charlton to the east. Grove to the north is still just about detached and is a separate parish. Wantage parish stretches from the northern edge of its housing up onto the Downs in the south, covering Chain Hill, Edge Hill, Wantage Down, Furzewick Down and Lattin Down. The Edgehill Springs rise between Manor Road and Spike Lodge Farms and the Letcombe Brook flows through the town. Wantage is home to the Vale and Downland Museum. There is a large market square containing a statue of King Alfred, surrounded by shops some with 18th-century facades. Quieter streets radiate from it, including one towards the large Church of England parish church. Wantage is the Alfredston of Thomas Hardy's Jude the Obscure.
Wantage is at the crossing of the B4507 valley road, the A417 road between Reading and Cirencester and the A338 road between Hungerford (and junction 14 of the M4 motorway) and Oxford. Bus services link Wantage with Oxford as well as other towns and villages including Abingdon, Didcot, Faringdon and Grove. Stagecoach in Oxfordshire provide the main services between Wantage and Oxford with up to three buses per hour Monday to Saturday and up to two buses per hour on Sunday's and bank holidays, operated under Stagecoach's luxury Stagecoach Gold brand. Stagecoach provides a late-night service on Friday and Saturday evenings with buses running to Oxford until 2am and buses from Oxford to Wantage until 3am.
Wantage does not have a railway station; Didcot Parkway, 8 miles to the east, is the nearest station, with services towards London, Bristol and Cardiff. The Great Western Mainline is just north of Grove (2 miles North of Wantage) where the former Wantage Road railway station used to be. It was closed during the Beeching cuts in 1964. The Wantage Tramway used to link Wantage with Wantage Road station. The tramway's Wantage terminus was in Mill Street and its building survives, but little trace remains of the route. Wantage has been the site of a church since at least the 10th century and the present Church of England parish church of Saints Peter and Paul dates from the 13th century, with many additions since. SS Peter and Paul also contains seventeen 15th-century misericords.

Lechlade, or Lechlade-on-Thames, is a town at the southern edge of the Cotswolds in Gloucestershire, England. It is the highest point at which the River Thames is navigable. The town is named after the River Leach that joins the Thames near The Trout Inn.
The town is a popular venue for tourism and river-based activities. There are several pubs, some antique shops, a convenience store, food outlets, a garden centre and a Christmas shop. Near the 15th century Church of England parish church of Saint Lawrence, in the centre of the town, there is a large open space which is now a car park. The main roads through the town are busy, as the town is at the crossroads of the A417 and A361. Where the A361 enters the town from the south it crosses the River Thames on Halfpenny Bridge. Another tributary of the Thames, the River Coln, joins the Thames at the Inglesham Round House. Lechlade has hosted a music festival since 2011.
Lechlade falls in the Kempsford–Lechlade electoral ward. This ward stretches from Lechlade in the east to Kempsford in the west. The total population of this ward taken from the 2011 census was 3,973. Although in Gloucestershire, and traditionally in the hundred of Brightwells Barrow, from 1894 till 1935 the town was administered as part of Faringdon Rural District in Oxfordshire. From 1935 till 1974 it was part of Cirencester Rural District in Gloucestershire, and since 1974 it has been a part of Cotswold District.
Lechlade is the highest town to which the River Thames is navigable by relatively large craft including narrowboats. It is possible to travel by river or on foot from here to London. Indeed, in the early eighteenth century goods unloaded in Bristol were transported to Gloucester, carried overland to Lechlade and sent down the Thames to London. The Halfpenny Bridge is therefore the usual start for a water based Thames meander – the term for a long distance journey down the Thames. The Thames Path also continues upstream to the traditional source of the Thames at Thames Head). The river is actually navigable for a short distance further upstream, near the village of Inglesham, where the Thames and Severn Canal joins the River Thames. Rowing boats can reach even further upstream, to Cricklade. Lechlade is a popular resort for Thames boating. Boats of different types can be hired from here, from rowing boats to river cruisers.
Lechlade has a number of youth activities, most of them centred on the Memorial Hall and the adjacent Lechlade Pavilion Hall. Behind the Town Hall are large playing fields, an astro turf pitch, a skate park and a playground.
