Revell Close
Off Beeching Way. So new it's not on the map.
This area as well as being the site of Wallingford train station was also home to the town Gas Works in the days when gas was manufactured from coal.
This was a very dirty process and there were substantial pollution issues to be solved before housing could be built.

Side of the pumping station
I came here to see if there was a bench mark on the pump house and by chance saw one person who lived here in the housing beside it. They were good enough to let me photograph it from this side which shows what looks like a porch was here at one time. No bench mark though, I found out it was probably on the water tower that used to be here but was demolished, this is all that is left now.

Tower by the trees
One of the things that dominate the centre of Wallingford is this water tower that now stands in a housing estate.

Converted Pumping Station Building, Beeching Way
A nice conversion of a building which was part of an old pumping station.
An earlier picture from 2010 Image shows it empty and boarded up. It's good to see it with a new life as it's quite a pleasant old building.

Pumping station by the housing
The water tower on its own in the middle of a housing estate. I must confess it was a while since I had been round the area so was surprised it had changed.

Derelict scout hut
I might be wrong but I'm quite sure this is the old second Wallingford scout group hall.

Beeching Way
Beeching Way is on the site of the terminus of the old branch line which used to run between the main line at Cholsey and Wallingford Station, which was near here. The station closed to passengers in 1959 and no trace remains.
Dr Richard Beeching in 1963 produced a report which resulted in the closure of many lines and stations, and Wallingford would undoubtedly have been one of them if events hadn't beaten him to it.
But as this road is on the site of a closed station, the name is relevant.
The small boarded up building was part of an old pumping station. Since this picture was taken it has been converted to a house, shown here Image
