BELL FAIR SUCCESS The Friends of St Peter's would like to thank all of those who came to support the Bell Fair on October 29th, and we are extremely grateful to the Hatwell family who offered to stage the fair specifically to raise money for the bells. The day was a great success, raising over £1500 towards the restoration of the church bells, which is planned for 2012. The fairground rides were very popular with even some of the village's more mature residents enjoying themselves on the biggest ride (in spite of the screaming!). Thanks too for all of those who helped at the barbeque, the skittles, the afternoon teas, the quiz and the supper. It was also good to have some live music from talented local youngsters Catch 23 in the afternoon, and from the Cassington Singers and C Factor winner Kevin Perisi in the evening.

  • As a Largely Rural District the Highway Network Plays a Key Role in West Oxfordshire
    Highways 8.9 As a largely rural district the highway network plays a key role in West Oxfordshire. The main routes include the A40 Cheltenham to Oxford, the A44 through Woodstock and Chipping Norton, the A361 Swindon to Banbury and the A4260 from Banbury through the eastern part of the District. These are shown on the Key Diagram (Figure 4.1). The provision of a good, reliable and congestion free highway network has a number of benefits including the provision of convenient access to jobs, services and facilities and the potential to unlock and support economic growth. Under the draft Local Plan, the importance of the highway network will continue to be recognised with necessary improvements to be sought where appropriate. This will include the delivery of strategic highway improvements necessary to support growth. 8.10 The A40 is the main east-west transport route with congestion on the section between Witney and Oxford being amongst the most severe transport problems in Oxfordshire and acting as a potential constraint to economic growth. One cause of the congestion is insufficient capacity at the Wolvercote and Cutteslowe roundabouts (outside the District) with the traffic lights and junctions at Eynsham and Cassington (inside the District) adding to the problem. Severe congestion is also experienced on the A44 at the Bladon roundabout, particularly during the morning peak. Further development in the District will put additional pressure on these highly trafficked routes. 8.11 In light of these problems, Oxfordshire County Council developed its ‘Access to Oxford’ project and although Government funding has been withdrawn, the County Council is continuing to seek alternative funding for schemes to improve the northern approaches to Oxford, including where appropriate from new development.

  • Wall-Painting at South Leigh
    A 'Fifteenth-Century' Wall-Painting at South Leigh By JOHN EDWARDS SUMMARY This paper is confined 10 one of Ihe several wall-painlings al Soulh Leigh church which Wert reslored in 1872, namely, Ihe Soul- Weighing on Ihe soulh wall of Ihe nave. In il,Jrom evidence based nol merely on Ihe records, but also on several points arising from a detailed examination of the wall-painting itself, it is hoped to demonstralt that the Soul- Weighing can no longer be accepted as even a htal!J-handtd repainting of a lale 151h cenlury original, bUI is now due for a re-appraisal in its own righl as an example of Victonan religious art. which took its subjectJrom the anginal medieval wall-painting but is about twiu as large. n the late 1860s the Bishop of Oxford, at the instigation of the lord of the manor, I Coningsby Sibthorp of Canwick Hall, Lincolnshire,' created the parish of South Leigh out of the existing parish of Stanton Harcourt, the first vicar of the new parish, the Rev. Gerard Moultrie, being appointed in 1869.' The church of South Leigh, SI. James the Great, has a rebuilt Norman chancel, but the rest is late 15th-century.] Considerable restoration of the church was necessary, and was already in progress by 27 th January, 1872/ in the course of which it was reported that 'on removing the whitewash from the walls remarkable wall-paintings have come to light'. ~ The restoration of the wall-paintings was carried out at a cost of £85 by Messrs. Burlison & Grylls; they had been appointed on Sibthorp's express nomination.' This was a somewhat curious choice, since they were not restorers of wall-paintings by profession, but after both had trained in the studios of Clayton & Bell, the celebrated makers of stained glass, they themselves had set up in the stained glass business only a few years before, in 1868.' No doubt (he pressure of work caused by the amount of Victorian church-restoration was such that those concerned had to turn their hands to whatever was required.

  • The Methodist Legend of South Leigh an Article in Celebration of the 250Th Anniversary of the Ordination of John Wesley
    The Methodist Legend of South Leigh An Article in Celebration of the 250th Anniversary of the Ordination of John Wesley. Sunday. September 19. 1725 by E. Ralph Bates Guide books specially written for the benefit of Methodist pilgrims in England point to the parish church of the small village of Soutll Leigh (sometimes written and more usually pronounced Lye), some two miles to the southeast of Witney and nine miles to the west of Oxford, as the scene of J ohn Wesley's first preach­ ing. l A brass plate affixed to the pulpit supports them. They follow a long line of Wesley historians. Over a century ago Tyerman wrote, "Wesley's first sermon was preached at South Leigh." 2 In fixing tile date as September 26, 1725, which was the Sunday im­ mediately following his ordination, it is clear that Tyerman intended his sentence to mean, "At South Leigh Wesley conducted his first preaching service." Curnock followed Tyerman and added that _ the text was Matthew 6: 33, "Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness." 3 Telford accepted Tyerman's word as to place, but was content to give the date as "soon after his ordination." 4 Doughty accepted both place and date.5 More recently, Dr. Green of Oxford has accepted Tyerman's word.6 Baker wrote more cau­ tiously, "Wesley's first sermon was apparently preached on Sunday, 26th September 1725, exactly a week after his ordination." 7 While not discarding Tyerman's conjecture-for conjecture it was-the problem of accepting it was hinted at.

  • The Medieval Rural Landscape, C AD 1000–1500 by James Bond
    THE THAMES THROUGH TIME The Archaeology of the Gravel Terraces of the Upper and Middle Thames: The Thames Valley in the Medieval and Post-Medieval Periods AD 1000–2000 The Medieval Rural Landscape AD 1000–1500 THE THAMES THROUGH TIME The Archaeology of the Gravel Terraces of the Upper and Middle Thames: The Thames Valley in the Medieval and Post-Medieval Periods AD 1000-2000 The medieval rural landscape, c AD 1000–1500 by James Bond INTRODUCTION The study of the medieval rural landscape entails a long history of research. The late 19th and early 20th century saw several pioneering works by historians who aimed to shift the spotlight from matters of political and religious history towards a better understanding of the countryside (eg Seebohm 1883; Vinogradoff 1892; Maitland 1897). The work of Gray (1915) built on these early studies by emphasising the considerable evidence of regional variation in landscape character. By the 1950s, interest in the medieval rural landscape, and particularly of the medieval village, was accelerating, with research by Beresford (1954) and W G Hoskins (1955) amongst the most prominent. The emerging knowledge base was now becoming founded on archaeological research and this was increasingly complemented by architectural (eg Long 1938–1941; Faulkner 1958; Currie 1992) and place/field-name studies (Gelling 1954; 1976; Bond 1982; Faith 1998) which added further detail and context to understanding of medieval settlements. Broader appreciation of the wider landscape, in terms of how it was used, organised and perceived by its medieval inhabitants have also been examined from the perspective of the elite (eg Creighton 2009; Langton 2010) and increasingly from the point of view of the peasant (eg Faith 1997; Dyer 2014).
