Abingdon Marina Changes

The rutted road to the Marina Park has been resurfaced. The last stretch is now concrete, with a few hollywood style footprints – not intentional.

Abingdon Marina are to increase the number of moorings from 100 to 120 by adding some extra floating pontoons.

Pictures taken a few weeks apart. The view is of of the corner of 35 Ock Street (the Church in Abingdon’s open house), Abingdon Baptist Church and carpark, and the corner of Richard Coxeter Ltd.

Times have changed. Mobility scooters are commonplace. They often drive down the wrong side of the street.
Would this be more appropriate?
