A view from just below the bridge of the River Thames as it flows past Abingdon on its way to Reading and London. Here the spire of St Helen's church dominates the scene - a well known landmark to users of the Thames. It inspired the artist JMW Turner who featured ii in a painting called 'Abningdon'.
