This report has been prepared by Amanda Hopwood Landscape Consultancy (AHLC), on behalf of West Oxfordshire District Council. Its aim is to update and expand the previous study of land on the fringes of Carterton, the Key Settlement work in the West Oxfordshire Landscape Assessment (WOLA), in order to establish a sound evidence base for the West Oxfordshire Local Development Framework. -
Archaeopress Open Access
World Archaeology at the Pitt Rivers Museum: A Characterization edited by Dan Hicks and Alice Stevenson, Archaeopress 2013, page 279-301 13 Oxfordshire Matthew Nicholas and Dan Hicks 13.1 Introduction The Pitt Rivers Museum (PRM) holds c. 3,241 objects from Oxfordshire that are currently defined as archaeological.1 This represents just c. 11% of the archaeological collections from the UK, and just c. 2.4% of the Museum’s world archaeological collections as a whole. However, such is the quantity of British material, and the international distribution of the collections as a whole, that collections from only 10 of the 134 countries represented in the ‘archaeological’ collections are larger than those from Oxfordshire. Thus, even if leaving the ‘ethnographic’ collections aside, the Oxfordshire archaeological material represents a significant element of the Museum’s collections. Some 2,852 (c. 88%) of these objects from Oxfordshire are prehistoric stone tools. Less than half were obtained through excavation, most being recovered through field-walking or collected during gravel extraction, and many more being collected during building works (Figure 13.1). Earlier chapters have considered the UK archaeological collections from the Palaeolithic (Chapter 9), later prehistoric and Romano-British (Chapter 11), and medieval and post-medieval (Chapter 12) periods, and have discussed some of the Oxfordshire material in the process. The point has been made already, especially in Chapter 12, that many of the apparently ‘ethnographic’ objects from England in fact represent significant resources for historical and archaeological studies. This is certainly the case for the PRM’s Oxfordshire collections: the number of medieval and post-medieval objects is significantly under-estimated, since many are currently classified as ‘ethnographic’. -

Excavations West of St Mary's Church, Black Bourton
Excavations West of St Mary’s Church, Black Bourton, Oxfordshire: Early, Middle, and Late Anglo-Saxon Activity David Gilbert with contributions by Paul Blinkhorn SUMMARY An excavation of a small area to the west of St Mary’s Church, Black Bourton, prior to the extension of the cemetery, was carried out by John Moore Heritage Services in June 2006, expanding upon previous work conducted in 2002. The excavation revealed an early to mid-Saxon domestic settlement, possibly with associated religious activity, suggested by two circular post-built structures that might have been shrines. The mid-Saxon period of settlement included sunken-floored buildings and post- built structures, with evidence of metalworking. It is notable for a small collection of Ipswich-ware pottery. Domestic activity on the site may have lasted until the eleventh century. n October 2002 John Moore Heritage Services carried out an archaeological evaluation of part Iof a field west of St Mary’s Church, Black Bourton, over which an extension to the local cemetery was planned. Significant archaeological remains were discovered, so it was agreed that an area would be excavated in order to record these remains before grave-digging destroyed them. The excavation was carried out in June 2006 over an area approximately 30 m by 15 m. It was part of a community project, and six volunteers helped on the site, in addition to local schoolchildren.1 The site of the proposed cemetery extension is on the edge of open farmland, adjacent to the existing churchyard and about 60 m west of the tower of St Mary’s Church, on the west side of Black Bourton. -

Frank Medlicott (Meddlicott)
106: Frank Medlicott (Meddlicott) Basic Information [as recorded on local memorial or by CWGC] Name as recorded on local memorial or by CWGC: Frank Medlicott (shown as 'Meddlicott' by CWGC) Rank: Private Battalion / Regiment: 1st / 4th Bn. Cheshire Regiment Service Number: 201540 Date of Death: 01 August 1918 Age at Death: 26 Buried / Commemorated at: Raperie British Cemetery, Villemontoire, Departement de l'Aisne, Picardie, France Additional information given by CWGC: The son of Henry and Martha Meddlicott of Puddington, Birkenhead The name of this family is recorded with several variations including Meddicott, Middlecott, Meddlecott, Medlicot, Medlicott and Meddlicott. Whilst the name recorded on the memorial plaque at St Nicholas, Burton, is Medlicott, the recognised spelling (as given in the two census returns for 1911 which bear this name, and as recorded by the CWGC) is Meddlicott. In this account the spelling Meddlicott will be used within the text although the variants will be used as these appear in documents. Frank Meddlicott was the third and final child of Henry and Martha Meddlicott of Oxfordshire. Henry Meddlicott married Martha Church in the Witney region of Oxfordshire in mid-1882 and by the time of the 1891 census, when they were living in the village of Aston to the west of Oxford, all three children had been born: Henry Medlicot 29 shepherd born Black Bourton, Oxfordshire Martha 29 born Black Bourton, Oxfordshire Mabel 8 born Burford, Oxfordshire George 4 born Black Bourton, Oxfordshire Frank 1 born Clanfield, Oxfordshire At the time of the 1901 census they were still in Aston, probably at the same house: 1901 census (extract) – Bull Street, Aston, Oxfordshire Henry Medlicott 37 shepherd born Black Bourton, Oxon. -
