  • Comments on the Proposed Boundary Changes to South-East

    Comments on the Proposed Boundary Changes to South-East

    Comments on the proposed boundary changes to south‐east Oxford As the Chair of Rose Hill and Iffley Low Carbon Community Group, I would argue that the proposed changes make little sense and that the existing ward boundaries should be retained, with the leeway for change mentioned below. Councillors should represent communities, not raw numbers. The natural boundaries of our ward (Rose Hill and Iffley) are the river, ring‐road, Rose Hill/Henley Avenue and Donnington Recreation Ground ‐ or Donnington Bridge Road if a greater number of residents is needed. If a lower number of residents is needed, the area around Westbury Crescent could be moved into Cowley ward as most people regard it as Cowley. We should keep all the houses on both sides of Rose Hill (the road) as it wouldn't make sense to live on Rose Hill and not in it! Our group would be badly affected by the proposed boundary change as we based our choice of name on the fact that they constitute one ward. We have active members in both Rose Hill and Iffley and this helps to bring the two communities together. It has always been helpful to ask known Councillors to represent us on key issues and to build a working relationship with them. It would be very complicated if we had to refer to multiple Councillors in a number of different communities. Rose Hill and Iffley share common resources ‐ the river, the church, Iffley Meadows, the No 3 bus into the town centre, the allotments, the recreation ground and now Rose Hill Community Centre, which provides facilities such as the gym to the whole community.

  • Pilgrimage to Binsey: Medieval and Modern

    Pilgrimage to Binsey: Medieval and Modern

    Binsey: Oxford’s Holy Place edited by Lydia Carr, Russell Dewhurst and Martin Henig Archaeopress 2014, pages 81-88 PILGRIMAGE TO BINSEY: MEDIEVAL AND MODERN LYDIA CARR Binsey’s holy well, with its literary and spiritual overtones, represents a key attraction of the little church for the modern visitor. In this brief essay, the broad history of pilgrimage in England is considered before approaching Binsey’s own post-Reformation history. Others have dealt with the history of St Margaret’s Well authoritatively in this volume; little of value can be added here to these excellent historical and archaeological syntheses. PILGRIMAGE IN ENGLAND: SACRED SPRINGS The attitude of the present English church towards holy wells is a peculiar one. Where other nations attempted to ‘reform’ away all trace of superstitious water, or else ‘Lourdize’ springs into a holy business enterprise, England’s wells still remain under the radar for many sections of her national church. The suspicious whiff of Popery or rural ignorance that hung about such waters was dealt with in the past by dismissing it as superstition, or by transforming wells into semi-medical spas as at Bath and Harrogate. Traces, where they remained, of a more spiritual aspect to the ‘cure’ were discouraged. It is typical of the Anglican Church’s desire to avoid extremes whenever possible, and of its dry urbanity when faced with enthusiasm. This distaste does not necessarily represent a lack of faith, but a discomfort with its public expression.1 Matters were different prior to the Reformation. Pilgrimages were a popular activity in medieval England, whether they took the traveller to Jerusalem or to Canterbury.

  • The Field Names of Cowley.Pdf

    The Field Names of Cowley.Pdf

    The field names of Cowley Christopher Lewis Cowley and its common fields When I refer to ‘Cowley’ I usually mean the area defined by the Enclosure Commissioners in 1853, encompassing all those detached areas of other parishes.1 The common fields of Cowley stretched from the banks of the Cherwell, south-eastwards to the old Roman Road and the borders with Horspath, Littlemore and Iffley, with a small detached portion on the slopes of Shotover Hill, known as Elder Stumps. A brook, now known as Boundary Brook, runs east to west across this area. Originally it meandered across the fields slightly south of its present course, but it was straightened, and probably deepened, at the time of the Enclosure. Our knowledge of the field names, and where they are in the landscape, mostly comes from maps made for Corpus Christi College, Christ Church, and Pembroke College, and then later in a series of Tithe maps and Enclosure maps. Field boundaries, parish boundaries, and roads are not necessarily coincident, and the boundaries of the open fields are not always shown on the maps. The earliest map that shows the borders of the fields was made for Christ Church by William Chapman in 1777 and names the larger fields as Millam, Long Mead, Compass Field, Ridge Field, Bartholomew Field, The Lakes, Cowley Marsh, and Lye Hill all north of the brook, and Wood Field, Fur Field, Broad Field, and Church Field to the south.2 Other names appear in the documents, sometimes as alternative names for the same pieces of ground, and sometimes seeming more important than the names on the Chapman map.

Erection of 3 x 5-bed dwellinghouses (Use Class C3). Creation of new access, modification of existing access, landscaping works and provision of bin and cycle storage.(Amended plans) Site address 1 Pullens Lane, Oxford, OX3 0BX, – see Appendix 1 for site plan Ward Headington Hill And Northway Ward Case officer Clare Gray Agent: Mr Alex Applicant: Grange Mill Cresswell Developments Ltd Reason at Committee Site measures over 0.25ha 1. RECOMMENDATION 1.1. East Area Planning Committee is recommended to REFUSE the application for the following reasons: 1) The proposed development by reason of its siting, massing, form, layout and external appearance, would cumulatively dominate and overwhelm this greenfield site such that it would result in an incongruous and inappropriate form of development, that would fail to preserve, and would erode, the quiet, verdant and rural character of Pullens Lane and the Headington Hill Conservation Area. Further, the loss of trees and important soft landscape features along with inadequate landscape mitigation proposed would cause harm to the visual amenity of Pullens Lane. This, coupled with the scale, form and layout, would cause harm to the wooded hillside that forms the green backdrop to Oxford and would be harmful to views out of the city, and to the special character and appearance of the Central Conservation Area. The proposed development would result in a harmful impact on the setting of the listed building Headington Hill Hall and would fail to preserve the character or appearance of that area or its setting.
  • A Brief History of Port Meadow and Wolvercote Common and Picksey Mead, and Why Their Plant Communities Changed Over the Last 90 Years A

    A Brief History of Port Meadow and Wolvercote Common and Picksey Mead, and Why Their Plant Communities Changed Over the Last 90 Years A

    A brief history of Port Meadow and Wolvercote Common and Picksey Mead, and why their plant communities changed over the last 90 years A. W McDonald Summary A multidisciplinary approach to landscape history enabled the examination of botanical, hydrological and agricultural data spanning some 4,000 years. The results showed Bronze Age humans affecting the vegetation by pasturing cattle on the floodplain extending from Yarnton to Oxford. In the Iron Age pastoralists were over-grazing Port Meadow and, between the sixth and ninth centuries, part of the floodplain was set aside for a hay crop whilst the aftermath or second grass crop continued to be shared as pasture. By Domesday floodplain meads were the most expensive land recorded in this survey and Port Meadow was established as common land belonging to Oxford. Having discussed the soil and water conditions on the floodplain and its potential effect on the plant communities, the management history of Port Meadow with Wolvercote Common is followed by that of Picksey Mead. Finally, the plant communities are discussed. Those established in 1981/2 are compared with data sets for the early 1920s and for 1996-2006. Changes in the species composition between sites are due to different management regimes and those over time and within sites are attributed to changes in the water-table. Introduction The Oxford grassland comprises common pasture and mead situated on alluvium over limestone gravel. It is unusual for its four thousand years of management history and evidence for the effect this has had on the vegetation. Sited in the upper Thames valley, within three miles of Oxford City centre, Port Meadow (325 acres/132 ha) and Wolvercote Common (75 acres/30.4 ha) (Figure 1 and Figure 2) are known locally as the Meadow, even though they are pasture1.
