Retro walk

 

This week I thought of showing some photos I found from around Wallingford, these were taken back in 2008 

 
Winterbook at the time I took this photo it was in the parish of Cholsey
 
 
St Leonards lane named after the old church you see.
 
 
St Leonard's churchyard
 
Mill lane

 Oppiosite is the mill which I knew as Hunts Mill, the shop was the building at the end. I remember going in there and that there was a mill wheel
 
 
Reading road going out of Wallingford towards Winterbrook
 
St Mary's street 
 
 
Market square, the town hall is to my left
 

All hallows churchyard a bit of a forgotten place

 
This was a doctors surgery when I was a kid
 

The entrance to the Bull croft one of two parks in Wallkingford
 

This was something I came across while walking along one of the paths in the bull croft, it used to be in the marked square where the war memorial is now
 

The almshouses these date back to 1681
 
Take Care

  1. You have no idea how much I want to walk down those streets and then go to a pub for dinner.

  2. Beautiful nostalgic captures of Wallingford! It’s always fascinating to see how places looked in the past and the memories tied to them. Thanks for sharing!

  3. It looks a pretty little town. The mill reminds me of one in Tewkesbury, but this one is in a much better state of repair!
