Looking northwards along the railway towards Oxford. On the right you can see one of the old WW2 aircraft hangars on the old Culham Airfield site. Now a business estate, a fair number of the original wartime buildings are still being used.

Earl's Forge, Long Wittenham

New houses going up in Long Wittenham, like they are everywhere else round here. The name is off the developer's notice board just behind me. I don't know the reason.
