  • Walk to School Week Letter!
    ST. ALOYSIUS’ CATHOLIC PRIMARY SCHOOL School Motto Be ambitious for the higher gifts. Monday, 13 May 2013 Dear Parents/Carers, Walk to School Week 2013 - 20th to 24th May This year we are participating in ‘Walk to School Week’ an initiative that takes place as part of National Walking month. Find out more at http://www.livingstreets.org.uk/walk-with-us/walk-to-school/walk- to-school-week At St Aloysius we are pretty good at walking, cycling, scooting and roller blading to school but we’d like to get even better! Of course we all know the health benefits but just imagine North Oxford with less traffic at drop off and collection times! So, during Walk to School Week we shall be encouraging as many families as possible to ditch the car and put their best foot forward. The children will be collecting data on modes of transport and Mrs Kempton, our very own Eco Warrior, has organised a Walking Bus from Cutteslowe taking place on the morning of Wednesday the 22nd May (see over for details). Join her en route…wear your very own reflective jacket (loaned by School)....and enjoy a chance to network with other like-minded parents over coffee and a croissant back at school. Kind Regards, Mr. Walker, Headteacher Walking Bus Route (please note all children must be accompanied by an adult) 8.00 Leave Cutteslowe Car Park near Harboard Road 8.05 Green playing field near Wren Road/Cutteslowe School/Community Centre 8.10 Bottom of Harpes Road 8.15 Bottom of Victoria Road then Hamilton Road then Lonsdale Road 8.30 Top of Lonsdale Road – Banbury Road end.

  • L.1 Hayfield Road
    L.1 Hayfield Road General Overview Hayfield Road is consistent with the rest of the Conservation Area in that its houses are constructed of red brick, with slate roofs and stone detailing, but it has a uniform character that sets it apart from the surrounding streets. The houses are all well-proportioned two- storey buildings fronting directly on to the pavement. Built in symmetrical pairs with intermittent side passageways, they are configured in blocks of eight or ten dwellings. The uniformity of the terraced frontages makes the variations from house to house all the more striking, notably in the individual ornamental stone carvings of fruits or plants set over each front door which were a signature of the architect, H. W. Moore, linking these plain and unpretentious dwellings with the grander North Oxford houses in the suburb that were also designed by Moore. Unlike the predominantly leafy appearance of most of the suburb, there is little greenery in the street. Consequently the residents particularly value the pair of birches planted next to the bollards at the southern end, and cherry and plum trees in the car park at Aristotle House (due to be replaced when the site is redeveloped), which soften the urban character of the street. On the west side, the back gardens of the houses reach down to the bank of the Oxford Canal. Number 57 has the only two-storey extension in the street, owing its existence to the fact that there was once a dairy in the back garden. History Hayfield Road is shown on Benjamin Cole's map of 1720 as a lane called “The Upper Way to Wolvercote”.

  • Hayfield Road
    Street Character Assessment for Hayfield Road Oxford 1) This street character statement has been prepared by the Hayfield Road Residents' Association in partnership with Oxford City Council to provide evidence of the character and appearance of Hayfield Road as a part of the North Oxford Victorian Suburb Conservation Area. The statement was prepared by a subcommittee of the residents' association between Spring 2013 and Spring 2014 and has been amended following consultation with local residents and businesses undertaken in Summer 2014. The character assessment will be presented to the City Council's West Area Planning Committee for endorsement as supplementary to the Draft North Oxford Victorian Suburb Conservation Area Appraisal and should be consulted with regard to applications for planning permission affecting the area to which it refers. 2) The assessment includes Hayfield Road and its immediate neighbourhood; the canal towpath to the west of Hayfield Road and the parts of Frenchay Road and Aristotle Lane that link Hayfield Road and the towpath (see the shaded area in the diagram, right). 3) Information about the Trap Grounds to the west of the canal tow-path can be found in the Trap Grounds character assessment. History 4) Hayfield Road is part of an old route from Oxford to Wolvercote, shown on Benjamin Cole's map of 1720 as “The Upper Way to Wolvercote”. A nearby well, known as Aristotle’s Well, on the corner of Aristotle Lane, was recorded in the seventeenth century as a destination for scholars walking into the countryside from Oxford. From at least 1718 refreshment was available at Heyfield's Hutt, a hostelry which eventually became known as Dolley’s Hut, located where The Anchor public house (built in 1937) stands today.

    North Area Committee 3rd June 2010 Application Number: 10/00594/FUL Decision Due by: 7th June 2010 Proposal: Demolition of electricity sub station. Erection of 2x1 bed flats, together with new substation, cycle and bin stores and shared garden (amended plans). Site Address: 1 Hayfield Road Oxford Oxfordshire OX2 6TX Ward: St Margaret’s Ward Agent: Riach Architects Applicant: Home UK Ltd. Called in by Councillors Campbell, Armitage, Foods and Brundin on grounds of overdevelopment and inappropriate development in a Conservation Area Recommendation: APPLICATION BE APPROVED For the following reasons: 1 The proposed development is considered to form an appropriate visual relationship with the existing building and its surroundings and would preserve the character and appearance of the North Oxford Victorian Suburb Conservation Area. Oxfordshire County Council as Local Highway Authority are not raising an objection to the principle of a car free development and have no other objections on highway safety grounds. The proposals provide for adequate cycle parking spaces, bin storage and shared amenity space and it is considered that the proposals accord with policies CP1, CP6, CP7, CP8. CP9, CP10, HE7 and HS19 of he adopted Oxford Local Plan 2001 - 2016. 2 A number of letters of objection have been received and the contents of these have been carefully considered as set out in the officer report. However it is considered that these objections, either individually or cumulatively, do not constitute sustainable reasons for refusing this planning application based on adopted policies contained in the Oxford Local Plan. 3 The Council considers that the proposal accords with the policies of the development plan as summarised below.
