Celsea Place
This is a road of old hospital housing built back in the 1960s. I think the ends are prefabricated sections. Had a few friends live round here. The properties are owned by the housing association now.

This was a footpath
This used to be a footpath leading past the houses but it has fallen into disuse and the grass has grown over the concrete losing it from view.

Papist Way, Cholsey
Papist Way is seen here at its junction with Celsea Place, on the south eastern edge of Cholsey village. The name 'Papist Way' is unusual and is believed to derive from the Hildesley family who occupied Littlestoke Manor in the 17th century. The Hildesleys were recusant Catholics (that is they refused to attend Church of England services, remaining loyal to the Roman Catholic faith after the reformation) and would have used this route to reach their house via a ferry across the River Thames. There is no ferry here now but the continuation of Papist Way down to the river is called Ferry Lane. Papist was used as a derogatory term and it seems likely that the people of Cholsey were not fond of their neighbours over the water.

Gate beside the Track
The gate and fenced off area are relatively new and fence off the cropped field so it can get used for livestock as well. The area beside the gate used to be known locally as the pit and was an old chalk quarry where the local kids played. It was filled in many years ago
