Caldecott, Oxfordshire

Caldecott is a suburb of Abingdon in Oxfordshire, England. Caldecott was formerly part of Sutton Wick but is now part of Abingdon.

Unlike northern Abingdon, Caldecott was not built until the late 19th century (then part of Sutton Wick). for this reason, when examining the river bank at the Cast Iron bridge and the roads either side, you can see how the foundation switch from the old mid 18th century foundations to the much more modern ones.

Caldecott has, in recent years, grown a reputation for being a haven for the delinquent youth. the growth of council funded households in central Caldecott during the 1980s greatly contributed to such a reputation.
