  • Speech Made by Mervyn Hughes on the Unveiling of the Oxfordshire Blue Plaque at Wytham Woods on 7 October 2017
    The ffennell family and Wytham Woods Speech made by Mervyn Hughes on the unveiling of the Oxfordshire blue plaque at Wytham Woods on 7 October 2017 The Schumacher family had lived in the Brunswick part of Germany since at least the fifteenth century and always had important roles in the running of the area. August Schumacher was a Privy Councillor and worked for Frederick, Duke of Brunswick who was killed in the last battle before Waterloo. August fought for the Prussians at Waterloo in 1815. He belonged to the “Black Brunswickers”. August later married Fanny Marc in about 1823. One of their children was Erwin. His older sister married into the Wagau family which enabled Erwin to join the company, soon becoming a partner. The Wagau family had traded in Russia since 1839. Erwin moved to London and opened a Wagau office, then in 1903 he swore an “Oath of Allegiance” to the Crown. The company traded in “colonial and chemical” commodities, including Chinese tea, American cotton, West Indian sugar, and English wool. Every town or city had a Wagau agent, part of a huge network. At the outbreak of WW1 the company (in today’s money) was worth about 3 billion pounds. All of Erwin’s six children were born in London: Erwin (Junior), Raymond, Gladys, Walter, Vera, and Elsa. Raymond attended Harrow School and then spent a year in Russia with Wagau before moving to South Africa in 1894. This was a boom time for deep-level gold mining, mainly in the Jo’burg area. Raymond may have known about (or perhaps more than that) the ill-fated “Jameson Raid” in 1896.

  • Botley Character Statement West Way Community Concern
    Botley Character Statement West Way Community Concern 1 Contents A. Introduction to the Botley Character Statement C. Headline Findings D. Location, Context and Layout E. Historical Development F. Character Areas 1. West Way 2. Old Botley 3. Seacourt 4. Westminster Way 5. Arthray Road 6. Cumnor Rise 7. North of West Way 8. Dean Court G. Sources Appendix A. Methodology 2 Section A. Introduction to the Botley Character Statement Local residents and businesses in Botley have joined together to prepare this character statement as a result of concern that new development should respond positively to the area’s established positive character. Local and national planning policies require proposals for new development to take local character into account and respond positively to it in the design of new buildings and spaces and their use. However, defining what the positive features of local character are that should be sustained and what negative feature should be managed out through development is a fundamental stage in this design process and requires assessment, analysis and establishment of consensus. Character assessments are now being undertaken by various community groups, as well as local planning authorities to establish this consensus about what is valued in the character of local areas and neighbourhoods to inform planning for change. To support local communities in undertaking their own assessment of character a number of toolkits have been prepared with the assistance of CABE and English Heritage. These are a recognised means for community groups to prepare character assessments that are sufficiently robust and reliable to be informative for planning decisions.

  • Early Medieval Oxfordshire
    Anglo-Saxon Oxfordshire Sally Crawford and Anne Dodd, December 2007 1. Introduction: nature of the evidence, history of research and the role of material culture Anglo-Saxon Oxfordshire has been extremely well served by archaeological research, not least because of coincidence of Oxfordshire’s diverse underlying geology and the presence of the University of Oxford. Successive generations of geologists at Oxford studied and analysed the landscape of Oxfordshire, and in so doing, laid the foundations for the new discipline of archaeology. As early as 1677, geologist Robert Plot had published his The Natural History of Oxfordshire ; William Smith (1769- 1839), who was born in Churchill, Oxfordshire, determined the law of superposition of strata, and in so doing formulated the principles of stratigraphy used by archaeologists and geologists alike; and William Buckland (1784-1856) conducted experimental archaeology on mammoth bones, and recognised the first human prehistoric skeleton. Antiquarian interest in Oxfordshire lead to a number of significant discoveries: John Akerman and Stephen Stone's researches in the gravels at Standlake recorded Anglo-Saxon graves, and Stone also recognised and plotted cropmarks in his local area from the back of his horse (Akerman and Stone 1858; Stone 1859; Brown 1973). Although Oxford did not have an undergraduate degree in Archaeology until the 1990s, the Oxford University Archaeological Society, originally the Oxford University Brass Rubbing Society, was founded in the 1890s, and was responsible for a large number of small but significant excavations in and around Oxfordshire as well as providing a training ground for many British archaeologists. Pioneering work in aerial photography was carried out on the Oxfordshire gravels by Major Allen in the 1930s, and Edwin Thurlow Leeds, based at the Ashmolean Museum, carried out excavations at Sutton Courtenay, identifying Anglo-Saxon settlement in the 1920s, and at Abingdon, identifying a major early Anglo-Saxon cemetery (Leeds 1923, 1927, 1947; Leeds 1936).
