Drawings by J. B. Malchair in Corpus Christi College
Drawings by J. B. Malchair In Corpus Christi College By H. MINN HERE have recently come to light in Corpus Christi College library T eleven volumes of drawings by J. B. Malchair and his pupils, drawn between the years 1765-1790.1 Malchair was a music and drawing master, and resided in Broad Street. A full account of all that is known of him will be found in an article by Paul Oppe in the Burlington Maga<:ine for August, 194-3. This collection appears to have been made by John Griffith, Warden of Wadham College, 1871-81, and consists of 339 water-colour, indian ink, and pencil sketches; of these no less than 138 are views in and about the City and drawn by Malchair himself. A full list of all the drawings depicting Oxford or neighbouring places will be found in the Appendix; the remainder of the drawings depict places outside the range of Oxonunsia. Malchair's drawings of the City are very valuable records, and it is satisfactory to note that most of his known drawings are now to be found in Oxford; for, in addition to this collection, there is a fine collection in the Ashmolean Museum and a few other drawings are among the Bodleian topographical collection; but there were others of great interest in existence in 1862 (see Proceedings of the Oxford Architectural and Historical Society, new series, I, 14-8), and it is to be hoped that these, if still in existence, may some day find a home in Oxford. The value of Malchair's drawings is much enhanced by his habit of writing on the back the subject, the year, day of the month and often the hour at which the drawing was made.

Conservation Area Character Appraisal
Introduction & Summary of the Principal Purposes of the Pyrton Conservation Area Character Appraisal This draft Conservation Appraisal has been prepared by Asset Heritage Consulting Ltd. on behalf of Pyrton Parish Council as a result of the recent completion of the pre-submission consultation draft of the Pyrton Neighbourhood Plan. In this context both the Neighbourhood Plan and the draft Appraisal accord with paragraph 58 of the NPPF, which states that ‘….neighbourhood plans should develop robust and comprehensive policies that set out the quality of development that will be expected for the area…such policies should be based on stated objectives for the future of the area and an understanding and evaluation of its defining characteristics’. By providing a thorough and comprehensive description and analysis of the existing Pyrton Conservation Area, together with making a detailed and sustainable case for proposed extensions to the currently designated area, the draft Appraisal provides a clear and objective assessment of the ‘special architectural and historic interest’ of the present conservation area and the proposed extensions to it, as required by Section 71 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. In this way the ‘special’ interest of the existing conservation area and the proposed extensions to it is clearly articulated. But this is not to say that the conservation area should be seen in isolation from the rural and historic character of the wider area. Indeed, as made clear in Terence O’Rourke’s recent Landscape & Visual Appraisal (completed in October 2016), the fields between Watlington and Pyrton perform a vital role in Draft Pyrton Conservation Area Appraisal Page 2 October 2017 separating Pyrton from its larger, urban neighbour and helping to prevent their potential unwelcome coalescence.

Scheduled Monuments in Oxfordshire Eclited by D
Scheduled Monuments in Oxfordshire Eclited by D. B. HARDEN HE Council for British Archaeology has recently issued the second eclition T of its J1emorandum on the Ancient Monuments Acts of 1913, 1931 and 1953.' This pamphlet explains in brief terms the provisions of the Acts and the machinery instituted by the Ministry of Works for operating them. It con tains also a list of local correspondents of the Mjnistry of Works, county by county, through whom reports and information about ancient monuments in the counties may be forwarded to the Ancient Monuments Department of the Ministry for action by the Chief Inspector of Ancient Monuments and his staff'. The information contained in the pamphlet is so important and so lucidly set out that the Committee has reacliJy acceded to a request from the Council for British Archaeology that its substance should be reprinted here. It is hoped that aJl members of the Society will make themselves familiar with the facts it provides, and be ready to keep the necessary watch on ancient monu ments in their area whether scheduled or not scheduled. Any actual or impend ing destruction or damage should be reported without delay either to the Cbief Inspector of Ancient Monuments or to the Ministry's Local Correspondent in the county in which the monument lies. (A list of the correspondents for Oxfordshire and neighbouring counties is given in Appendix I.) Special watch should, of course, be kept on monuments already scheduled, which are, for the very reason that they are scheduled, to be presumed to be amongst the most important ancient remains in the clistrict.

Traffic Sensitive Streets – Briefing Sheet
Traffic Sensitive Streets – Briefing Sheet Introduction Oxfordshire County Council has a legal duty to coordinate road works across the county, including those undertaken by utility companies. As part of this duty we can designate certain streets as ‘traffic-sensitive’, which means on these roads we can better regulate the flow of traffic by managing when works happen. For example, no road works in the centre of Henley-on-Thames during the Regatta. Sensitive streets designation is not aimed at prohibiting or limiting options for necessary road works to be undertaken. Instead it is designed to open-up necessary discussions with relevant parties to decide when would be the best time to carry out works. Criteria For a street to be considered as traffic sensitive it must meet at least one of the following criteria as set out in the table below: Traffic sensitive street criteria A The street is one on which at any time, the county council estimates traffic flow to be greater than 500 vehicles per hour per lane of carriageway, excluding bus or cycle lanes B The street is a single carriageway two-way road, the carriageway of which is less than 6.5 metres wide, having a total traffic flow of not less than 600 vehicles per hour C The street falls within a congestion charges area D Traffic flow contains more than 25% heavy commercial vehicles E The street carries in both directions more than eight buses per hour F The street is designated for pre-salting by the county council as part of its programme of winter maintenance G The street is within 100 metres of a critical signalised junction, gyratory or roundabout system H The street, or that part of a street, has a pedestrian flow rate at any time of at least 1300 persons per hour per metre width of footway I The street is on a tourist route or within an area where international, national, or significant major local events take place.
