Abbey Grounds, Abingdon
Looking across the site of Abingdon Abbey, on the very edge of the grid square. Beyond the fenced off area work is being carried out in the old ornamental lake (where old army weapons have been found) to restore the Victorian look of the gardens.

New Housing by the Mill Stream
A lot of new building in this part of Abingdon. These apartments look out over the Abbey Mill Stream near the ruins of Abingdon Abbey.
It looks like the architects were having a little abbey moment themselves when they sketched out this fancy arched balcony.

Abingdon railway station (site), Oxfordshire
Opened in 1856 by the Abingdon Railway, later part of the Great Western Railway, this was the terminus of a short branch which left the Paddington-Oxford line south of Radley. The station closed to passengers in 1963 and completely in 1984.
View west towards the buffers. This viewpoint would have been just beyond the end of the single passenger platform, which would have run straight ahead. A goods yard was to the left of the image. The site is mostly a supermarket, but Abbey Close cuts across the site between the platform and the site of the station building. No trace remains.
