LOCATION


The ancient market town of Wallingford owes its importance largely to its strategic position approximately mid-way between Oxford and Reading on the Icknield Way, at a natural fording point of the River Thames and therefore on the direct ‘East to West’ route used by travellers from as far back as the Bronze age linking East Anglia with the West Country and Wales.


Kings and Queens through the ages have been associated with Wallingford and its castle. The Danish King Sweyn burnt it, Edward the Confessor rebuilt it, William the Conqueror marched his army over the ford, Queen Mathilda fled over the frozen river to sanctuary in 1142, Henry II granted its charter in 1155, Henry VIII spent summers there and Queen Elizabeth I rebuilt the old mediaeval bridge with stones from the priory her father had destroyed.


During the Civil Wars, the town supported the Royalists and as a result Cromwell destroyed the castle. In the 18th Century Judge Sir William Blackstone who lived in the town wrote the first major commentary on the laws of England, which formed the inspiration for the American Constitution.


A terrible fire destroyed most of the mediaeval architecture in the town but there are numerous period buildings of great merit dating from the 16th century onwards, notably the Town Hall built in 1670, the 16th century George Hotel (an old coaching inn) and the Corn Exchange, of Italianate design, now a Theatre and Cinema.


The town now boasts a population of just over 6,000 and is a bustling market town and popular riverside touring centre with a wide range of interesting Artisan shops a Waitrose Supermarket, restaurants and Cafes, a Museum and a Cottage Hospital.
There are excellent road communications for the surrounding important towns and motorway networks, with Cholsey and Didcot both having mainline stations providing fast commuter services up to London (Paddington) via Reading.
