  • A Short History of WHEATLEY STONE
    A Short History of WHEATLEY STONE By W. O. HASSALL ILLUSTRATED BY PETER TYSOE 1955 Printed at the Oxford School of Art WHEATLEY STONE The earliest quarry at Wheatley to be named in the records is called Chalgrove, but it is not to be confused with the famous field of the same name where John Hampden was mortally wounded and which was transformed into an aerodrome during the war. Chalgrove in Wheatley lies on the edge of Wheatley West field, near the boundary of Shotover Park on the south side of the road from London to High Wycombe, opposite a turning to Forest Hill and Islip where a modern quarry is worked for lime, six miles East of Oxford. The name of Challrove in Wheatley is almost forgotten, except by the elderly, though the name appears in the Rate books. The exact position is marked in a map of 1593 at All Souls College and grass covered depressions which mark the site are visible from the passing buses. The All Souls map shows that some of these depressions, a little further east, were called in Queen Elizabeth’s reign Glovers and Cleves pits. The Queen would have passed near them when she travelled as a prisoner from Woodstock to Rycot on a stormy day when the wind was so rough that her captors had to hold down her dress and later when she came in triumph to be welcomed by the City and University at Shotover, on her way to Oxford. The name Chaigrove is so old that under the spelling Ceorla graf it occurs in a charter from King Edwy dated A.D.

  • The Round Oxford Walk - Section II
    The Round Oxford Walk - Section II Maps – I suggest the Ordnance Survey Explore Map 180, 1:25000 on Oxford. The 164 1:50,000 map is OK for a general view, but for when you are doing it you will benefit from having the greater detail on the 180. From Noke village you follow the footpath along the edge of Otmoor, (you get great views off to your left), and up into Noke wood – bought by John Buchan with the profits from “The 39 Steps” and still owned by the family. Follow the path up through the middle of Noke Wood, and then up the bank towards Beckley village. Again super views over Otmoor as you come up the bank. Follow the path into the village, and then when you reach the main road in the village, follow it around to the left, and go on past the Abingdon Arms pub, and then swing round to the right following the road through the upper part of the village and along the ridge; houses and TV mast on your right, magnificent views out over Otmoor to your left. The Beckley Mast - The transmitter was constructed in 1968 by the BBC, having been chosen as a suitable site for high power colour UHF transmissions. The transmitter entered service on 17 February 1968 carrying BBC Two, with ITV and BBC One following later in June 1970. Originally the site was host to a low power BBC monochrome 405-line VHF television relay, which was mounted on a much smaller tower. The latter is still on the site and is presently used for microwave dishes.

  • The Hunts of Cuddesdon & Wheatley 1780 to 1850
    The Hunts of Cuddesdon & Wheatley 1780 to 1850 This extract from the chart shows some of the marriages that took place around this time. The place- names mentioned in Oxfordshire are very close to one another, as can be seen on the map overleaf, and are for practical purposes, the 'same place'. Indeed the local population in Wheatley were obliged to use the church at Cuddesdon as their 'mother church' until a sufficiently large one could be built at Wheatley. the inter-relationship Hunts and the Cullum Note that Matthias Hunt's sister Elizabeth Martha Hunt married his wife's brother, William Cullum. Ellen Hunt's sister, Eliza Cullum, was later to marry a George Munt and emigrate to Australia. Her brother Henry Cullum, was baptised on the same day and in the same church as another 'Munt', William Munt. 'Witnesses at the weddings' is quite revealing. When Elizabeth Martha Hunt married William Cullum in 1856, the witnesses were William Hunt and Sarah Ann Hunt (sic). When Matthias married Ellen Cullum, among the four witnesses were Caroline Williams and John Cullum. Note particularly 'Caroline Williams'. When 'JHH' was doing research some years ago, he wrote that he had reason to believe that Caroline Williams and Ellen Hunt nee Cullum were cousins, and indeed there seems to be quite an inter-reaction between all these families. (Caroline Williams appears in another branch of the tree. She marries James Barker and her daughter marries J&M's grandfather, Frederick Matthias in 1893). But it was such a small community of course that they must have all known one another very well, and the 'new blood' from Berkshire would not have been too exotic.

  • 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).
