On the Thames a few miles downriver from Oxford, Abingdon is a large, thriving town with some very imposing architecture in its centre.
Abingdon County Hall from 1670 is very grand, with tall arcades that would have provided a sophisticated space for markets and meetings.
Now it’s a handy spot to have a quick cup of tea.
Abingdon Bridge has spanned the Thames since 1416, despite needing running repairs down the centuries.
