North Moreton is a quiet village situated approximately 2 miles east of Didcot and approximately 4 miles from historic Wallingford, This makes this countryside village well connected to A34, M40 & M4 motorways and mainline train service from Didcot to Reading, Oxford and London Paddington.

History - Although the oldest parts of the house date back to the 17th century and the Civil War, and it is located in a conservation area, the house is not a listed building. For many years it served as the village shop. During the war the front room opened as a pork-butcher’s shop, run by William Maycock the landlord of the adjacent inn The Bear. From 1952 to 1977 the house was owned, and the shop managed, by another of the Bera’s landlords, Norman Mawrey, an ex Salford rugby league player, and his wife Gladys (pictured). See also
