The resulting resource assessment, research agenda and characterisation reports are available on the council website, along with a six-year Archaeological Action Plan for the city. The year also saw a number of substantial city centre projects resulting from the expansion of college facilities, and some notable new information resulting from small-scale commercial and domestic development. Provisional summaries for selected sites are provided below. SELECTED PROJECTS 19 St Andrew’s Lane, Headington In January JMHS carried out an archaeological evaluation prior to the construction of a small extension at 19 St Andrew’s Lane. The evaluation recorded a post-medieval well and a series of cess pits filled with dump deposits containing animal bone, late-medieval and early post- medieval pottery and brick. At least six post holes from an unidentified structure possibly post- dating the pits were recorded. Nos. 6–7 High Street (Jack Wills, formerly Ryman’s Stationers) In February three test pits were excavated in the basement of Nos. 6–7 High Street by OA. A number of medieval pits containing domestic and butchery waste were recorded, along with a stone drain or wall foundation. The backfill of one feature contained a fired clay annular discoidal loom weight of likely early to middle Anglo-Saxon date (c.400–850). In June a lift pit was excavated in the basement revealing in section the edge of a possible wood-lined pit, potentially a ‘cellar pit’.

  • Cassington &Worton News
    CASSINGTON & WORTON NEWS News and views from the parish of Cassington and Worton January 2008 – Issue 367 From the team Welcome to the first issue of the Cassington and Worton News for 2008. We hope you had an enjoyable Christmas. From the postbag it seems that news is a little thin on the ground, which is hopefully good news in itself. Consequently our cover story this month is a public service announcement from the Oxford Primary Care Trust about the importance of staying warm through the winter. As I write it’s really quite mild for the time of year, but as we know the weather is very unpredictable and no sooner than we have an unseasonal heatwave we could find ourselves in the grip of a Siberian freeze. So, take heed of the advice overleaf, and if you have neighbours who are frail or vulnerable, keep an eye out for them too. One piece of news, which many of you may already know, is that John and Julie Perrin will be leaving the Red Lion later this month after 13 years. We recommend you make the time to show your appreciation of all they have done over the years during opening hours between now and January 11th. We’d like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their support of Cassington and Worton News, and to wish our readers, contributors and advertisers a very ... Happy New Year Keep warm this winter Advertising rates Most people know they are more likely to catch a cold or flu during the Local ‘what’s on’ and fund-raising stuff is free.

  • West Oxfordshire Local Development Framework Settlement Sustainability Report
    West Oxfordshire Local Development Framework Settlement Sustainability Report - Weighting Analysis Revised November 2010 Settlement Sustainability Report - Weighting Analysis November 2010 1. Introduction 1.1 The aim of this paper is to investigate the relative sustainability of the District’s settlements. This assessment is an input to the preparation of the Core Strategy. 2. Methodology 2.1 The most up to date information collected on facilities and services in the District is collected in the West Oxfordshire Parish Survey. This was completed by Parish Clerks in July/August 2010 for their respective parishes. For the purpose of this analysis parish data is used. Occasionally, where services and facilities within settlements are referred to, such as pubs and petrol filling stations, they may be located outside of the main settlement elsewhere in the parish. With the exception of Hanborough, which includes the villages of Long Hanborough and Church Hanborough and the parish of Aston which includes the villages and hamlets of Aston, Cote, Shifford and Chimney, the parishes considered in the analysis generally contain only one main settlement which provides a focus for services and facilities. 2.2 There are a large number of towns, villages and hamlets within the District, some of which are very small and do not have any services or facilities. It was not feasible to include each one in this analysis. This analysis is based on the 42 towns and villages identified within the settlement hierarchy in the adopted Local Plan. 2.3 The facilities and services were broken down into two main components; services and facilities within the settlement and accessibility to higher order centres.
