  • Appleton with Eaton Community Plan
    Appleton with Eaton Community Plan Final Report & Action Plan July 2010 APPLETON WITH EATON COMMUNITY PLAN PART 1: The Context Section A: The parish of Appleton with Eaton is situated five miles south west of Oxford. It Appleton with Eaton consists of the village of Appleton and the hamlet of Eaton, together totalling some 900 inhabitants. It is surrounded by farmland and woods, and bordered by the Thames to the north-west. Part of the parish is in the Oxford Green Belt, and the centre of Appleton is a conservation area. It is administered by Oxfordshire County Council, The Vale of the White Horse District Council and Appleton with Eaton Parish Council. Appleton and Eaton have long histories. Appleton is known to have been occupied by the Danes in 871 AD, and both settlements are mentioned in the Doomsday Book. Eaton celebrated its millennium in 1968. The parish’s buildings bear witness to its long history, with the Manor House and St Laurence Church dating back to the twelfth century, and many houses which are centuries old. Appleton’s facilities include a community shop and part-time post office, a church, a chapel, a village hall, a primary school, a pre-school, a pub, a sportsfield and a tennis club. Eaton has a pub. There is a limited bus service linking the parish with Oxford, Swindon, Southmoor and Abingdon. There are some twenty-five clubs and societies in Appleton, and a strong sense of community. Businesses in the parish include three large farms, a long-established bell-hanging firm, a saddlery, an electrical systems firm and an increasing number of small businesses run from home.

  • Brightwell Baldwin Community History and Archaeology Project
    South Oxfordshire Archaeological Group Project Design South Oxfordshire Archaeological Group in association with the Oxfordshire Buildings Trust Project design for a research excavation on the presumed site of the 17th century ASCOTT MANOR HOUSE ASCOTT PARK Stadhampton, Oxfordshire 2018-20 Ian Clarke and Roelie Reed SUMMARY Ascott Park was once a country seat of the Dormer family who resided there for many generations. William Dormer (d.1683) commissioned a new manor house and extensive remodelling of the grounds c.1660 but the house burnt down in 1662 when close to completion and was never occupied. Despite much recent research and fieldwork by and for the Oxfordshire Buildings Trust, culminating in an excavation in 2009 on the ‘traditional’ site of the 1662 house, its location remains disputed and unconfirmed. A geophysical survey by the South Oxfordshire Archaeological Group in 2013 determined that the ‘traditional’ site is still by far the most likely location, and following a critical review of the earlier fieldwork, an alternative interpretation of the archaeology was proposed that supports that conclusion. This project design outlines a further excavation to try to prove ‘beyond reasonable doubt’ that William Dormer’s new house was built on the ‘traditional site’ and that the archaeology on that site is what remains of that house. 1 LOCATION AND CONTEXT 1.1 Ascott Park is centred at SU 611 981, close to the village of Stadhampton and about 12km south-east of Oxford. The park is on the Historic England (HE) Register of Historic Parks and Gardens, registered Grade II. Various buildings and structures are also listed Grade II or II* including a dovecot and a ‘granary/icehouse’, the latter also being a Scheduled Monument.

  • The Baldons and Nuneham Courtenay Newsletter April 2021
    The Baldons and Nuneham Courtenay Newsletter April 2021 FROM REVEREND TERESA STEWART-SYKES Over the past year we’ve all learned some new vocabulary, nearly all of which has been linked to the pandemic. This year’s new word is ‘roadmap’, and the concept of a roadmap came to my mind as I was marking out a labyrinth in the churchyard of St Leonard and St Catherine in Drayton St Leonard. The similarities between the two are striking. Like a roadmap a labyrinth, in contrast to a maze, has both a fixed entry point and a fixed route to its centre; there is only one path to follow. Also like a roadmap, a labyrinth has opportunities to pause and reflect, on what has happened in the past and on what the future might hold. The purpose of both is to journey to a new way of being. Whilst a roadmap is a new concept, labyrinths have fascinated many cultures throughout history, it is an art form that can be traced back 4000 years. The mosaic floors of Roman villas, for example, sometimes included the pattern of a labyrinth. In the mediaeval period, the church began to use labyrinths as a tool for meditative prayer and many churches have a labyrinth depicted in the flooring of the nave; Chartres Cathedral built in the 13th century is a most famous example. In the modern times, amidst the busyness and stress of our lives, using a labyrinth to walk slowly and to reflect has become a very popular form of mindfulness and prayer.

  • The Post-Medieval Rural Landscape, C AD 1500–2000 by Anne Dodd and Trevor Rowley
    THE THAMES THROUGH TIME The Archaeology of the Gravel Terraces of the Upper and Middle Thames: The Thames Valley in the Medieval and Post-Medieval Periods AD 1000–2000 The Post-Medieval Rural Landscape AD 1500–2000 THE THAMES THROUGH TIME The Archaeology of the Gravel Terraces of the Upper and Middle Thames: The Thames Valley in the Medieval and Post-Medieval Periods AD 1000-2000 The post-medieval rural landscape, c AD 1500–2000 By Anne Dodd and Trevor Rowley INTRODUCTION Compared with previous periods, the study of the post-medieval rural landscape of the Thames Valley has received relatively little attention from archaeologists. Despite the increasing level of fieldwork and excavation across the region, there has been comparatively little synthesis, and the discourse remains tied to historical sources dominated by the Victoria County History series, the Agrarian History of England and Wales volumes, and more recently by the Historic County Atlases (see below). Nonetheless, the Thames Valley has a rich and distinctive regional character that developed tremendously from 1500 onwards. This chapter delves into these past 500 years to review the evidence for settlement and farming. It focusses on how the dominant medieval pattern of villages and open-field agriculture continued initially from the medieval period, through the dramatic changes brought about by Parliamentary enclosure and the Agricultural Revolution, and into the 20th century which witnessed new pressures from expanding urban centres, infrastructure and technology. THE PERIOD 1500–1650 by Anne Dodd Farmers As we have seen above, the late medieval period was one of adjustment to a new reality.
