STREATLEY

"STREATLEY, in the hundred of Moreton, lies by the Thames side, about six miles south of Wallingford, on the road to Reading. It is supposed to have taken its name from being situated on the ancient Ichnield-Street, or Ickleton-Way, as it is here called, which crosses the Thames from this place to Goring, in Oxfordshire... The Bishop of Salisbury is patron of the vicarage, which is in the deanery of Wallingford. The great tithes, formerly appropriated to the priory of Hurley, are now annexed to the see of Salisbury. Southbridge and Westbridge are in this parish." (From Lyson's Magna Britannia - Berkshire, 1806)
