  • George Edmund Street
    DOES YOUR CHURCH HAVE WORK BY ONE OF THE GREATEST VICTORIAN ARCHITECTS? George Edmund Street Diocesan Church Building Society, and moved to Wantage. The job involved checking designs submitted by other architects, and brought him commissions of his own. Also in 1850 he made his first visit to the Continent, touring Northern France. He later published important books on Gothic architecture in Italy and Spain. The Diocese of Oxford is extraordinarily fortunate to possess so much of his work In 1852 he moved to Oxford. Important commissions included Cuddesdon College, in 1853, and All Saints, Boyne Hill, Maidenhead, in 1854. In the next year Street moved to London, but he continued to check designs for the Oxford Diocesan Building Society, and to do extensive work in the Diocese, until his death in 1881. In Berkshire alone he worked on 34 churches, his contribution ranging from minor repairs to complete new buildings, and he built fifteen schools, eight parsonages, and one convent. The figures for Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire are similar. Street’s new churches are generally admired. They include both grand town churches, like All Saints, Boyne Hill, and SS Philip and James, Oxford (no longer in use for worship), and remarkable country churches such as Fawley and Brightwalton in Berkshire, Filkins and Milton- under-Wychwood in Oxfordshire, and Westcott and New Bradwell in Buckinghamshire. There are still some people for whom Victorian church restoration is a matter for disapproval. Whatever one may think about Street’s treatment of post-medieval work, his handling of medieval churches was informed by both scholarship and taste, and it is George Edmund Street (1824–81) Above All Saints, Boyne His connection with the Diocese a substantial asset for any church to was beyond doubt one of the Hill, Maidenhead, originated in his being recommended have been restored by him.

  • The North Oxfordshire Grim's Ditch
    THE NORTH OXFORDSHIRE GRIM’S DITCH: AN ENIGMA WITHIN AN ENIGMA Tim Copeland THE ‘CINDERELLA’ OF LARGE SCALE LATE IRON AGE/EARLY ROMAN ENCLOSURES. AT THE TIME THAT THIS MONUMENT WAS CONSTRUCTED THERE WAS NO ‘OXFORDSHIRE’ AND ‘GRIM’ WAS OF ANGLO- SAXON ORIGIN. WE HAVE TO THINK HERE ON A REGIONAL, OR EVEN NATIONAL, SCALE. The late Iron Age major sites Crawford did a lot of fieldwork on foot and in the air (the ‘father’ of fieldwork as we know it) and discovered sections of the NOGD south of the River Evenlode. He published his findings in ‘Antiquity’ Issue 15 in 1930 under the title ‘Grimsdyke in Wychwood’. He suggested that the NOGD might have been constructed about 370 AD to stop invading Saxons attacking the villas. NOGD CHARACTERISTICS I • Area: 80sq km • Linear bank and ditch: 40km with gaps • Bank: 2m high(?) and 7m wide • Ditch:1.75m deep • Ditch: 6.8m wide • Possible palisade in front of the ditch • No traces of previous occupation within the enclosed area EXCAVATIONS AT BLENHEIM AND MODEL FARM DITCHLEY 1936 • It was decided that the structure was completed in the early AD 40s against the Roman threat. It was then deliberately filled in almost immediately when it was seen to be redundant. A cross-section of the NOGD at Ditchley in 1936. Note the presence of a ‘palisade trench’ beyond the ditch. This occurs at many points on the north circuit. THE NOGD AT LONG HANBOROUGH Having been covered by woodland for at least a 1000 years, this must be close to its full height and depth.

  • Relevant Development Plan and Other Policies)
    PN8 PLANNING & REGULATION COMMITTEE – 8 MARCH 2021 Policy Annex (Relevant Development Plan and other Policies) West Oxfordshire Local Plan 2031 (WOLP): POLICY OS1: PRESUMPTION IN FAVOUR OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT Planning applications that accord with the policies in this Local Plan (and, where relevant, with policies in Neighbourhood Plans) will be approved, unless material considerations indicate otherwise. Where there are no policies relevant to the application or relevant policies are out of date at the time of making the decision then the Council will grant permission unless material considerations indicate otherwise – taking into account whether: Any adverse impacts of granting permission would significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits, when assessed against the policies in the National Planning Policy Framework taken as a whole; or Specific policies in that Framework indicate that development should be restricted. POLICY OS2: LOCATING DEVELOPMENT IN THE RIGHT PLACES Main service centres, rural service centres and villages A significant proportion of new homes, jobs and supporting services will be focussed within and on the edge of the main service centres of Witney, Carterton and Chipping Norton. A number of site allocations are proposed to ensure identified needs are met. The distribution of development is set out in Policy H1. Due to the size of the settlement and its proximity and connections to Oxford City, Eynsham will also make a significant contribution towards meeting the identified housing needs of the District and Oxford City with a strategic urban extension to be provided to the west of the village. A new rural service centre – Oxfordshire Cotswold Garden Village – will be created to the north of Eynsham and contribute towards Oxford City’s needs.
