  • Excavations at Callow Hill, Glympton and Stonesfield, Oxon
    Excavations at Callow H ill, Glympton and Stonesfield, Oxon. By NICHOLAS THOMAS INTRODUCTION HE excavations described in this report were carried out by the Oxford University Archaeological Society in order to throw new light on the problemsT posed by the group of Roman villas that lies in the area defined by the north Oxfordshire Grim's Dyke. It was agreed that this could best be done by investigating the ditch which enclosed one of these villas-Callow Hill, 3! miles NW of Woodstock ( ational Grid: 42/40919s)-and the prominent earthworks immediately to the east of it. These earthworks appeared to have much in common with Grim's Dyke itself, which runs through Blenheim Park about one mile farther towards Woodstock. It was hoped that it would be possible to deduce some relationship, either chrono­ logical or political, between the villa at Callow Hill-and hence, to some extent, between the other villas hereabouts-and Grim's Dyke. The work was carried out during the first three weeks of September, 1950, under my direction, assisted by Mr. Alan Hunter.' No previous research had been undertaken at Callow Hill. The site has long been known because of the amount of Romano-British building debris and potsherds which lie about on the surface. In 1916 a floor was found, l The excavations were made possible by a grant of £30 from the Research Fund of the Oxford University Archaeological Society. Sincere thanks arc due to His Grace the Duke of Marlborough, Col. Sir Charles Ponsonby 8t., Mr. and Mrs. E. Tomkins, and Mr.

  • Northern Evenlode Valleys CTA (Conservation Target Area) a Group of Valleys on the Northern Side of the Evenlode Valley Cutting Into the Cotswolds Plateau
    Northern Evenlode Valleys CTA (Conservation Target Area) A group of valleys on the northern side of the Evenlode Valley cutting into the Cotswolds plateau. Extends onto the plateau to the east where there is an extensive grassland recreation program. Joint Character Area: Cotswolds Landscape Types: Farmland Slopes and Valley Sides (eastern valleys) with small fringing patches of Farmland Plateau, Settled Ancient Pastures to the east along with Farmland Plateau. Geology: The eastern sections are largely dry limestone valleys. To the west the valleys are wet with a more varied geology with Lias mudstones, limestones, some gravel and alluvial deposits along the streams. The plateau is oolitic limestone. Topography: Sections of the south facing Evenlode Valley sides and a number of narrow valleys to the north of the main valley. West of Charlbury the area includes more gently valley sides. West of Chadlington it includes flatter areas of plateau land and the top end of another wider valley. Area of CTA: 1448 hectares Biodiversity: • Limestone grassland. The eastern valleys include SSSI's at Stonesfield and Reed Hill. One valley extends to the relatively flat grasslands at Newbarn Farm at the valley head. The Cotswold Line cuts through the area where limestone grassland is also found on the embankments. To the west, limestone grassland is more restricted but includes sites with meadow clary and road verge reserves. Beyond Chadlington the area extends beyond the valleys onto the plateau where limestone grassland has been recreated. • Lowland Meadows. Between Charlbury and Chadlington lowland meadow habitat is found in the valleys. There are remnants of this habitat outside the designated sites.
