We look forward to hearing from you. welcome Kevin's CAWNer February – it’s a leap year this year! I gain another notch in my timeline. It’s also Valentines and like marmite, you either love it or hate what it stands for these days. It’s the fi rst of the super moons this month – the Snow Moon – will we see any this year in Cassington? It’s also another gathering of the village Eco & Climate Change group who are keen to fi nd champions for key topics (see page 9). Preparations also commence for Cassington Bike Night 2020 and they are looking for residents to get involved in the preparations for the annual event. February also marks the start of Annual General Meeting season – I’ve had my say on this season in the past and I just hope residents who desire to infl uence, guide and develop this village will step up and get involved in the various village groups. It seems people are very good at taking one step back to critics on the side lines rather than stepping forward to constructively effect change. In talking about change, there is also a threat to village traditions based on a comment about the Boxing Day football marrieds vs singles football match. Can tradition be saved? Can it be allowed to evolve? Happy reading - and hey! feedback and contributions always welcomed.

  • Oxfordshire (Pdf)
    OXFORDSHIRE Oxfordshire lies to the north-west of London. It is bordered to the south by Berkshire, to the west by Gloucestershire, to the north by Warwickshire and Northamptonshire, and to the east by Buckinghamshire. In 1974 parts of Berkshire were transferred to Oxfordshire, which is why the modern county as illustrated on the left is slightly larger than the one on the right. The major town is Oxford, where jurisdiction over weights and measures was in the hands of the University from medieval times, and was not formally transferred to the Corporation until 1868. The other Ancient Boroughs were Banbury, Chipping Norton, Henley, and Woodstock. All were active in the business of inspecting weights and measures, although Chipping Norton effectively handed over to the county in 1858, and Henley and Woodstock seem to have done very little. After the Act of 1878, only Oxford and Banbury continued to operate as Weights and Measures Authorities. The county itself was rather slow to obtain the new Imperial Standards, and there were several changes to the arrangements for inspection before the police force was set up in 1857. As in some of the nearby counties, the work of regulating weights and measures seems to have been entrusted traditionally to local ironmongers, whitesmiths and braziers, until a specialist scale maker, Gale and Son, appeared in Oxford in 1850. In the 20th century there was a long- running competition between Avery and the local firm of Kirk & Co, which ended, inevitably, in victory for Avery in 1936. A: Inspection by the County of OXFORDSHIRE Dates Events Marks Comments 1830 One set of standards [431] verified.

  • Hanborough to Charlbury Walk
    Saturday Walkers Club www.walkingclub.org.uk Hanborough to Charlbury walk Blenheim Palace, its beautiful landscaped parkland, a Roman road, and flint stone villages. Blenheim Palace & Cornbury Park Length 22.1km (13.7 miles), 6 hours. For the whole outing, including trains, sights and meals, allow at least 11 hours. Toughness 5 out of 10. OS Maps Explorer 180 or Landranger 164. Hanborough, map reference SP 433 142, is in Oxfordshire, 7km north-west of Oxford. Features This is a lovely walk, just an hour and a quarter's journey by train from London into Oxfordshire's countryside and the extensive grounds of Blenheim palace. The River Evenlode and its soft, easy hills and fertile countryside inspired Tolkien’s Hobbit Shire. The start of the walk is good for blackberries in September. Before lunch, there are the 2,100 acres of the Great Park leading to Blenheim Palace, its lake and the Column of Victory that the first Duke of Marlborough had placed on the horizon so that he could see it from his bedroom. Once over the wall out of the Park, the route is along Akeman Street, the Old Roman road from Alchester to Cirencester, with big stone slabs from the old road still visible in places. This is now part of the Oxfordshire Way and the leg of over a mile to Stonesfield is through open farmland and progress can be hard work if into the wind. https://www.walkingclub.org.uk/walk/hanborough-to-charlbury/ 1/19 At lunchtime you could picnic in the meadow by the Stonesfield Ford and the old slate quarries, or have a pub lunch in the village.
