Oxfordshire

The area around Watlington.

Watlington is one of Oxfordshire's smallest towns, sitting below the Chiltern escarpment with its brick town hall and the White Mark carved on the hill above. It is quiet, affluent and surrounded by pretty villages and country homes. Customers are discerning and want trades who understand older brick and flint properties, so a site showing that experience and naming villages such as Pyrton and Lewknor works better than a generic pitch.

Wallingford (6 miles), Thame (7 miles) and Didcot (11 miles) are the nearest in the same council area. Elsewhere in Oxfordshire, Abingdon-on-Thames (12 miles) and Oxford (13 miles) are within reach. Across the boundary into the next council area, Princes Risborough (9 miles) is also close. A longer drive takes in High Wycombe (11 miles) and Marlow (11 miles). Naming the towns you actually cover tells people straight away whether you will come to them.

Inside Watlington, the site can name areas such as Pyrton, Cuxham, Christmas Common, Britwell Salome, Shirburn and Lewknor.

Watlington addresses fall in the OX postcode area, about 127 miles north-east of Exeter, where we are based.
