Watlington: Former watercress bed
This non-descript dry (in December 2013) pond off Spring Lane is immediately downstream of a spring at the foot of the Chilterns. Old Ordnance Survey maps show that the pond was almost certainly dug out to create a short-lived watercress bed, and it is marked as such on the map of 1898. By the time that the 1921 edition was produced the pond was well-defined but the descriptive text had been removed.

Riding the Evening Breeze: Red kite over Watlington, Oxfordshire
Milvus milvus is getting very common in these parts as at the beginning of 2014. One of the locals told me that around here they are known as the "Watlington sparrow".

Watlington Telephone Exchange, Oxon
Situated in Spring Lane near Hill Road, this TE, which has the code THWT, is in the background and would have replaced the standard dark wooden hut at the front, possibly in the 1970s when several of the larger TEs were built to handle increased telephone traffic. It provides telephone and broadband services to 1,519 residential and 105 non-residential premises in Watlington, plus Brightwell Baldwin, Britwell Salome, Christmas Common, Cuxham, Pyrton and Shirburn nearby. This TE has (01491) 61xxxx numbers, the (01491) referring to the Henley-on-Thames group of ten TEs, and its postcode is OX49 5BD.
