Repeated fly-tipping at land adjacent to College Piece, Mortimer Sovereign Housing have been involved as there is no obvious vehicular access so the fly- tipping is more likely to have been committed by locals on foot. As the waste has been dumped on private land, WBDC is not responsible for clearing it away. Discussions are being held to see if it will be possible to provide a skip in the College Piece area to discourage further fly-tipping. 7.

  • Mortimer Heritage Trail
    Mortimer Heritage Trail Walk 2: Mortimer Common 3km (2.25 miles) This second of two moderate walks identifying interesting properties and places covers Mortimer Common, the newer part of the village, with homes being built mainly after 1880. Until then it had grown gorse and birch but not much else, the gravel soil being useless for agriculture. The Enclosure Acts from earlier that century had put the Common into private ownership. Housebuilding started slowly with existing ‘squatter’ cottages in Longmoor, Groves Corner and Summerlug being joined by a few more. West End House and Briar Lea House were the only sizeable properties by 1840. After land sales in 1870-71, house building started in earnest from about 1880 including in Windmill Road, Victoria Road and King Street (named after Mr King the baker), the population growing rapidly from the early 1900s. We start at the Community Centre car park, marked (1) on the red route on page 4, in the Fairground. The Fairground, is designated as an open space amenity. Today this is where travelling fairs and circuses come and village events are held. In the past, it has been used for gymkhanas, which have attracted Royal participants. Earlier still cattle and horse fairs were held there with animals being driven along Welshman’s Road allegedly from Wales but more likely from the railway sidings at Padworth. The Horse and Groom pub opposite would have been the oldest pub in the village had it remained in its original 17th century half-timbered building. The present pub was built adjacent, the original becoming a butcher’s shop.

These have been replaced by hyperlinks to the same pages.
