    APPENDIX I Report of the Ward Boundary Review Working Group to CEB – 20th March 2018 Criteria Used This submission uses the following principles as criteria for the proposed scheme, in addition to the legally required criteria for equality of electorates: the river Cherwell and the river Thames south of the confluence with the Cherwell should be used as boundaries between wards that wards should be based on clearly identifiable communities or collections of communities as far as possible to use arterial roads as the centre of wards rather than boundaries between them where possible – in several parts of the city it is not - current wards should be the starting point for the new scheme Number of Councillors In line with the submission from the Council that has been accepted by the Commission, the scheme is for 48 councillors. Number of Wards Oxford currently has a scheme of 24 two member wards, which has been in place since 2002. This approach replaced the previous system of 17 larger wards, and was supported by the Council and the Commission because a larger number of smaller wards had the following advantages: smaller wards offer better community identity with the political boundaries in multi-member wards all electors rightly expect that each councillor is equally representative of them, and a two-member ward scheme means that each councillor represents 33% fewer electors than a three-member ward scheme, enabling them to be more responsive to the needs of their electors wards make it easier for electors to identify with their councillors the communities that make up Oxford better suit 24 two-member wards than they do any other scheme The experience of the current two member ward system has amply demonstrated these advantages; therefore a 24 ward scheme should be retained.

  • Samuel Lipscomb Seckham
    Samuel Lipscomb Seckham By PETER HOWELL l TIL recently the name of Samuel Lipscomb Seckham was fairly widely U known in Oxford as that of the architect of Park Town. A few other facts, such as that he was City Surveyor, were known to the cognoscenti. No-one, however, had been able to discover anything significant about his background, let alone what happened to him after he built the Oxford Corn Exchange in 1861-2. In '970 a fortunate chance led to the establishment of contact with Dr. Ann Silver, a great-granddaughter of Seckham, and as a result it has been po ible to piece together the outline ofhis varied career.' He was born on 25 October ,827,' He took his names from his grandparents, Samuel Seckham (1761-1820) and Susan Lipscomb (d. 18'5 aged 48).3 His father, William ('797-,859), kept livery stables at 20 Magdalen Street, Oxford,. and prospered sufficiently to retire and farm at Kidlington.5 The family came from Devon, where it is aid that Seccombes have occupied Seccombe Farm at Germans­ week, near Okehampton, since Saxon limes. Seccombes are still living there, farming. It is thought that Seckllam is the earlier spelling, but tombstones at Germansweek show several different versions. 6 It is not known how the family reached Oxford, but Samuel Lipscomb Seckham's great-grandmother Elizabeth was buried at St. Mary Magdalen in 1805.7 His mother was Harriett Wickens (1800-1859). Her grandfather and father were both called James, which makes it difficult to sort out which is which among the various James W;ckens' recorded in I The fortunate chance occurred when Mrs.

  • Drawings by J. B. Malchair in Corpus Christi College
    Drawings by J. B. Malchair In Corpus Christi College By H. MINN HERE have recently come to light in Corpus Christi College library T eleven volumes of drawings by J. B. Malchair and his pupils, drawn between the years 1765-1790.1 Malchair was a music and drawing master, and resided in Broad Street. A full account of all that is known of him will be found in an article by Paul Oppe in the Burlington Maga<:ine for August, 194-3. This collection appears to have been made by John Griffith, Warden of Wadham College, 1871-81, and consists of 339 water-colour, indian ink, and pencil sketches; of these no less than 138 are views in and about the City and drawn by Malchair himself. A full list of all the drawings depicting Oxford or neighbouring places will be found in the Appendix; the remainder of the drawings depict places outside the range of Oxonunsia. Malchair's drawings of the City are very valuable records, and it is satisfactory to note that most of his known drawings are now to be found in Oxford; for, in addition to this collection, there is a fine collection in the Ashmolean Museum and a few other drawings are among the Bodleian topographical collection; but there were others of great interest in existence in 1862 (see Proceedings of the Oxford Architectural and Historical Society, new series, I, 14-8), and it is to be hoped that these, if still in existence, may some day find a home in Oxford. The value of Malchair's drawings is much enhanced by his habit of writing on the back the subject, the year, day of the month and often the hour at which the drawing was made.

At a time when Oxford needed to expand out of its historic core centred around the castle, the medieval streets and the major colleges, these two factors enabled the area to be laid out as a planned suburb as lands associated with medieval manors were made available. This gives the whole area homogeneity as a residential suburb.

  • Scheduled Monuments in Oxfordshire Eclited by D
    Scheduled Monuments in Oxfordshire Eclited by D. B. HARDEN HE Council for British Archaeology has recently issued the second eclition T of its J1emorandum on the Ancient Monuments Acts of 1913, 1931 and 1953.' This pamphlet explains in brief terms the provisions of the Acts and the machinery instituted by the Ministry of Works for operating them. It con­ tains also a list of local correspondents of the Mjnistry of Works, county by county, through whom reports and information about ancient monuments in the counties may be forwarded to the Ancient Monuments Department of the Ministry for action by the Chief Inspector of Ancient Monuments and his staff'. The information contained in the pamphlet is so important and so lucidly set out that the Committee has reacliJy acceded to a request from the Council for British Archaeology that its substance should be reprinted here. It is hoped that aJl members of the Society will make themselves familiar with the facts it provides, and be ready to keep the necessary watch on ancient monu­ ments in their area whether scheduled or not scheduled. Any actual or impend­ ing destruction or damage should be reported without delay either to the Cbief Inspector of Ancient Monuments or to the Ministry's Local Correspondent in the county in which the monument lies. (A list of the correspondents for Oxfordshire and neighbouring counties is given in Appendix I.) Special watch should, of course, be kept on monuments already scheduled, which are, for the very reason that they are scheduled, to be presumed to be amongst the most important ancient remains in the clistrict.

  • Adderbury-PARISH-PLA
    Adderbury Parish Plan 2004-2014 October 2007 Introduction The Parish Council instituted a series of village appraisals in 1994 and 2004 as an opportunity for local people to get involved in prompting and prioritising self-help community initiatives and influencing local action. This Parish Plan stems directly from the appraisal work and its production was supported by the Oxfordshire Rural Community Council. The purpose of the plan is to: Present locally identified needs to the district and county councils. Inform the Parish Council on the aspirations of the local community. Influence the community in the part it plays. How this Parish Plan was developed The widest possible input has been sought from all sections of the community both in identifying the issues to be tackled and in proposing solutions. This plan identifies those features and local characteristics that our people value, and spells out how residents would like the community to develop in the future. Key steps have been: 1993 Parish Council set up an independent, objective steering committee to carry out a village appraisal. 1994: First Village Appraisal conducted. 2004: Second Village Appraisal conducted. Results of 2004 Village Appraisal published in September. Appraisal Steering Committee handed over its findings to a Parish Plan Steering Committee in November. 2007: Parish Plan Steering Committee reconstituted in January. Parish Plan published in October. How this Plan fits in with other Community Plans/Strategies Nationally, each parish has been encouraged to develop their own community plan. These parish plans provide invaluable information to the wider community planning process, and many local aspirations are already reflected in local community plans such as the Cherwell Community Action Plan 2006-2011.
