Well he looks like a Pikey. 
From wiki:
Wood was born into a family of English "water gypsies" (river/canal barge operators, sometimes also called "bargees") and says that his generation was the first in the family to be born on dry land. He grew up in Yiewsley and attended St Stephen's Primary School and St Martin's Church of England Secondary School, West Drayton.
There is canal basin at West Drayton/Yiewsley. That is probably why he lived there.
