Recordist's notes
As part of Get Rid! a project exploring the soundscape of grassroots football in Oxfordshire I have been visiting the pitches of clubs in the North Berks League. This recording was made in the centre circle of the home ground of East Hendred FC. I was listening - in particular - for sounding evidence of the A34 to the East and the A417 to the North.
