Royal Wedding? – not for me – although the extra day off work was most welcome!
So, having taken the opportunity to knock another couple of English Heritage sites off the list, I found myself in sunny Oxfordshire.
Although there is now no sign of the Barrows which once stood here I did see a sign proclaiming Abingdon as 'the oldest town in Britain – since the Iron Age'.
As Barrows once stood here perhaps this should be revised to 'since the Bronze Age'?
