East Challow is on the edge of Wantage, which is a lovely small market town in the Vale of White Horse with a good range of shops and services.

Links with the past are very strong too - it is notable as the birthplace of King Alfred the Great in 849.

The town lies about 8 miles (13 km) south-west of Abingdon and a similar distance west of Didcot and is at the crossing of the B4507 valley road, the A417 road between Reading and Cirencester and the A338 road between Hungerford (and junction 14 of the M4 motorway) and Oxford.

There are main line railway services from Didcot Parkway. There is one state secondary school in Wantage, King Alfred's Academy, and some ten primary schools.

There are also several independent schools in Abingdon, Oxford and nearby villages.

Wantage has a fine reputation for the arts – music, dances and poetry – and this is celebrated each year with an Arts Festival during the summer.

John Betjeman lived in The Mead, Wantage (by Letcombe Brook) for many years and wrote poetry about Wantage.

Thomas Hardy’s “Jude the Obscure” was set in nearby Letcombe Bassett where “Arabella’s Cottage” can still be seen.
