The Saxon Moat
Wallingford's Saxon fortifications are well preserved for most of their length, but especially so here where the moat still holds water 1,000 years on.

Water in the Moat
Marked rather inaccurately as "drain" on the map, this is part of Wallingford's Saxon moat which was dug in the reign of King Alfred to create one of the fortified towns of Wessex.
A bit further along from my 2010 picture Image the moat has even more water in it this year.

Wallingford's Shortest Footpath?
Shown on the map as following the edge of a school field to Castle Street at the other end, the path is no longer in existence beyond the 20 metres or so visible here, where bushes take over.
For a long time there has been a road following the same route a short distance away, and the path is redundant but I guess nobody has gone through the rigmarole of officially closing it. There is even a recent looking signpost at this end, as seen here.
