More information on Vale of the White Horse
The Vale of the White Horse is an area of 225 square miles bounded by the River Thames in the north and the Berkshire Downs in the south. The main towns of Abingdon, Wantage and Faringdon are surrounded by over 60 villages. The area is mainly agricultural and offers wonderful riverside and pastoral scenery as well as splendid panoramic views from the Downs. It is also steeped in history. Alfred the Great was born in Wantage in 849 and the Icknield Way - the oldest known road in Britain - can be walked along the tops of the downs as it makes its way from the Wash to Salisbury Plain.
