Caldecott, High Street c.1955

More about this scene
Roman remains are extant at Caldecott, but it is the later thatched and slated farmhouses, and rows of cottages (some with date panels) fronting onto the High Street which present a unified entity. The White Hart pub (centre right) sits at right angles to the street, but the inevitable 20th-century interloper of considerably lesser architectural merit can be seen in the distance. The base of a cross known as the Kingstone survived into the 20th century, but was removed and used as walling in Black Horse Lane. To the north of the village are earthworks, all that remains of the lost hamlet of Snelston.
