Gallowstree Common, Oxfordshire Weather
About Gallowstree Common, Oxfordshire
Gallowstree Common maintains a quiet dignity upon the elevated gravel plateaus of South Oxfordshire. It lies 4.5 miles north-north-west of Reading (from Reading: bearing 342°T, OS grid SU 690 801), and is situated north-west of Kidmore End village. The landscape here is defined by wide expanses of common land where the sky feels vast and unencumbered by the dense woodland nearby. To the north-north-west, the still surface of Goldfish Pond catches the low afternoon light, reflecting the skeletal reach of winter oaks. Gallowstree Common rests upon a high ridge, offering long, cooling views across the Thames Valley towards the distant chalk escarpments. The earth beneath is hungry and flinty, a stark contrast to the verdant, sheltered hollows found elsewhere in the county. Just a short distance to the north-west, the earthworks of Castle Grove Camp mark a lingering, ancient presence upon the scrubby, elevated ground. These remnants of a past age sit silently beneath the clouds, watching over a landscape that has long traded the noise of industry for the slow rotation of the seasons.
