LOCATION
The village of Woodcote, which lies just off the Reading to Oxford
Road, is situated in an area of ‘Outstanding Natural Beauty’
surrounded by the scenic countryside of the Chilterns, with
extensive beech woodlands and undulating fields. The village is
some 500’ (160 metres) above sea level and there are glorious
far-reaching views from several parts of the village. Originally a
small community based on farming and the countryside, Woodcote has
grown substantially, especially during the 1960s and 1970s, is now
a thriving village with a good range of local amenities including
supermarket, public house, modern health centre and excellent
education facilities with a toddler playgroup, and primary and
secondary schools.
In addition to having the well revered and outstanding state
primary and secondary schooling, the area is also extremely well
served by an excellent range of private schooling, of particular
note; Cranford House School, The Oratory Preparatory School,
Moulsford Preparatory School, St Andrews Preparatory School, The
Oratory School, Pangbourne College, Brockhurst & Marlston House,
Queen Anne’s School, Downe House, Rupert House School, Shiplake
College, The Abbey School, Bradfield College, The Manor Preparatory
School, Abingdon School, Abingdon Preparatory School, Radley
College, and St Helen & St Katharine.
Near the centre of the village is the Parish Church, which was
rebuilt in 1846 in a Norman style on the site of the original
Norman structure, with a few traces of original walling still
surviving. Woodcote House, an historic country mansion built in the
1730s, now forms part of the Oratory School, standing in extensive
park like grounds east of the main village. A variety of local
activities appealing to young and old are based in the Village Hall
and nearby Community Centre and which are well publicised in the
monthly village newspaper, the Woodcote Correspondent, circulated
to all local residents.
Woodcote has good road communications with easy access for
Reading, Henley, Oxford and the M40 and M4 networks. For rail
commuters there are mainline stations locally at Pangbourne and
Goring on Thames, as well as Reading, all providing fast services
up to London (Paddington).?
Bridle Path leads into the very centre of the village comprises
a mixture of properties reflecting the development of the village
over the past 200 years with one or two properties dating back to
bygone times.
N.B. Crossrail services are scheduled to be commencing from
Reading which together with the electrifying of the line will
significantly improve travelling times to central London
destinations.
