Discover the historic charm of Abingdon, nestled along the picturesque River Thames in Oxfordshire, England. This quaint town has a rich heritage that spans across continents and centuries. Step back in time to November 2nd, 1956, when Queen Elizabeth II graced Abingdon with her presence during a royal visit. The streets were filled with excitement as locals eagerly awaited her arrival. Abingdon's connection to aviation is also notable. The Westland Lysander R9125 once soared through its skies, showcasing the town's contribution to aircraft manufacturing and innovation. RAF Abingdon hosted thrilling air displays that left spectators in awe. Transportation played a vital role in shaping Abingdon's identity. The bustling Abingdon Station was a hub of activity in the 1920s, connecting travelers from near and far. Meanwhile, river steamers gracefully cruised along the tranquil waters of the Thames, offering scenic journeys for all who embarked on them. Notable figures have also left their mark on this charming town. Beryl Markham, an accomplished aviator and author known for her transatlantic solo flight from east to west against prevailing winds, called Abingdon home at one point – adding another layer of intrigue to its history. RAF Buccaneer S. 2B planes once roared through the skies above RAF Abingdon during Formula One testing events held here in 1989 – an exhilarating fusion of speed and precision that captivated both locals and visitors alike. Across continents lies another gem named after our beloved town: The Barter Theatre of Virginia located in Abingdon USA showcases world-class performances that continue to enchant audiences year after year.
