Wallingford
Wallingford is a historical market community and civil parish situated to the south of Oxford on the River Thames in England. Historically situated in the region of Berkshire, it was moved to Oxfordshire for the functions of management in 1974. Wallingford is located 12 miles (19 kilometres) north of Reading, 13 miles (21 kilometres) south of Oxford and also 11 miles (18 km) north west of Henley-on-Thames. The town's population was 11,600 in the 2011 census. The community has actually played an important role in English background beginning with the surrender of Stigand to William the Conqueror in 1066, which caused his taking the throne and also the production of Wallingford Castle. The castle and also the community enjoyed imperial standing and also flourished for much of the Middle Ages. The Treaty of Wallingford, which ended a civil war called The Anarchy in between King Stephen and also Empress Matilda, was signed there. The community after that entered a period of decrease after the arrival of the Black Death as well as falling out of favour with the Tudor monarchs before being called on once more throughout the English Civil War. Wallingford held out as the last remaining Royalist stronghold in Berkshire prior to giving up after a 16-week siege. Fearing that Wallingford Castle could be made use of in a future uprising, Oliver Cromwell purchased its destruction. Ever since Wallingford has come to be a market town and also centre of regional business. At the centre of the community is a big competitive market square with the war memorial and also 17th century arcaded city center to the south, the Corn Exchange theatre to the east as well as various shops around the edges. Off the square there are alleyways and also streets with more shops and also a number of historic inns. Although it was a village, Wallingford when had 14 churches; now, there are 3 ancient churches within the Parish of St Mary-le-More as well as St Leonard, a modern-day Roman Catholic church, a Quaker Meeting House dating from 1724 as well as Baptist, Methodist as well as neighborhood churches.
