Good point! OK, a locale something like 'near station' then? (I don't want to use 'station' because I'd expect that to mean the shops which are actually in the station...) Of course anything in 'station' would also be in 'near station' (threads merge: 1 mile (from station)). :-)
The Cambridge Guide has "Station Area", which seems fairly clear - I have no strong opinion though.

I'd allow at least 20 minutes, probably a bit more if the consequences of missing the train were awful (eg last train); but I don't walk very fast & I am a bit cautious about train times. It's probably do-able in 15 minutes if you walk briskly.
Thanks! I don't think I'll make the next one, but perhaps for the one after that we could go along and talk about the Oxford Guide? (I don't want to do the talking part but I can answer questions afterwards.)
