WOOTTON

"WOOTTON, a parish in the hundred of Hormer, county Berks, 3½ miles N.W. of Abingdon. This place, formerly a chapelry in the parish of Cumnor, was separated early in the last century. The land is nearly evenly divided between arable, pasture, and meadow. The soil is a mixture of sand, clay, and limestone. The living is a curacy annexed to that of South Hinksey. The church is dedicated to St. Peter."
