Away from the historic town centre, a lot of Wallingford is much like anywhere else. The town stayed within its ancient boundaries for centuries before sprawling out post WW2 into the surrounding fields. This is Clapcot Way, a name which harks back to one of the old parishes that occupied the surrounding area in days gone by. http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=43259 The rest of the street is much the same as this. I just liked the Ho Ho Ho house.
