Wantage is an old market town, best known as the birthplace of King Alfred, whose statue stands in the market place. Grove, immediately to the north, has grown quickly, with new estates still being built.

The A338 runs north to south through both, and the A417 heads east towards the A34. The Ridgeway runs along the Downs just to the south.

Grove and the new estates

Grove’s modern streets have drives and parking courts. Collection is quick where the truck can pull in alongside; in parking courts, mention tight turns or bollards.

Down at the foot of the Ridgeway

Letcombe Regis, Ardington, East Hendred and the downland villages are reached on lanes that can be narrow. Cars kept on farms or behind cottages are fine, given a little notice about access.
