    Ashmolean Natural History Society of Oxfordshire Rare Plants Group 2009 Newsletter Birthwort, Aristolochia clematitis Photo: Charles Hayward www.oxfordrareplants.org.uk INTRODUCTION It was such a relief not to have a desperately wet summer in 2009 as the last two were, and what a joy when Creeping Marshwort came popping up in sheets on Port Meadow after an absence of 18 months. Photo 1(left): 1 June 2009. Port Meadow showing the flood-water retreating and mud flats exposed. Photo: Camilla Lambrick Photo 2 (right): 1 June 2009. Southern part of Port Meadow, a former Creeping Marshwort area, now drying mud. Graham Scholey of the Environment Agency and Rebecca Tibbetts of Natural England assess the situation. Photo: Camilla Lambrick Alas Fen Violet is still in trouble at Otmoor – perhaps not dry and warm early enough for this very early species. The Fen Violet exercised us most during 2009 by way of a meeting with specialists from Plantlife and Northern Ireland, in a nation-wide discussion of radical actions notably for introduction on RSPB land. True Fox-sedge looks to be well set-up for the future now that extensive introductions by BBOWT have proved successful. Other plants seem to get on well by themselves – Birthwort (see front cover picture and report on page 4) seems to be proliferating in the ditches of a medieval nunnery just north of Oxford city. Progress continues towards the Oxfordshire Rare Plants Register; photographs are being amassed, and thanks to Ellen Lee’s masterly command of the records we now have some 4000 new records beginning to take form as eye-catching maps.

  • 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.

  • A Microhistory of a Rural Community
    The Social History of Medical Self-Help in 20th-Century England: A Microhistory of a Rural Community. Submitted to the University of Hertfordshire in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of PhD (Schedule A). Fiona Mantle Date: July, 2019. i Abstract This thesis focuses on the health experiences of an Oxfordshire village 1900-1947 and the aim of the study is to obtain a holistic view of the health status and health strategies of one agricultural community. The period under review covers the years of therapeutic nihilism, the start of the therapeutic revolution, the third and fourth stages of germ theory and the start of the epidemiological transition. From a range of archival sources, the thesis examines the effects of climate, environment, housing, diet and the extant medical provision on the health and wellbeing of the residents. These effects in turn informed the residents’ health beliefs and self-help strategies set against the existing medical and nursing provision during periods of depression and war until the establishment of the National Health Service in 1948. Medical and health information from a range of sources, which were available to residents was explored. It shows that the residents were not passive in the face of illness and misfortune but worked together as a community. The importance of this study is its contribution to the historiography of rural health during the interwar years and offers a portrait of rural resilience and stoicism in the face of medical adversity. ii Acknowledgements I would firstly like to thank my supervisor Owen Davies for his patience in trying to turn a social scientist into a historian and for all his encouragement and interest in the subject and Dr.

  • Lowland Calcareous Grassland
    CALCAREOUS GRASSLAND IN OXFORDSHIRE 1. INTRODUCTION Calcareous grasslands are developed on shallow lime-rich soils generally overlying limestone rocks, including chalk. They are now largely found on distinct topographic features such as escarpments or dry valley slopes and sometimes on ancient earthworks in landscapes strongly influenced by the underlying limestone geology. They are typically species-rich, agriculturally unimproved grasslands, managed as UK Biodiversity Action Plan - Priority components of pastoral or mixed farming systems, species associated with farmland supporting sheep, cattle or sometimes horses; a few examples are cut for hay. It is one of the UK’s most Grey partridge important wildlife habitats, supporting a wide range of Lapwing specialised plants and animals including many rare Skylark species. In Oxfordshire these grasslands support the bulk Stone curlew of the UK populations of meadow clary, Chiltern gentian Turtle dove and downy woundwort.

  • Chalk, Cherries and Chairs Central Chilterns Landscape Partnership Scheme
    Chalk, Cherries and Chairs Central Chilterns Landscape Partnership Scheme LANDSCAPE PARTNERSHIP MANAGER JOB INFORMATION PACK Photo credits: Allen Beechey, Stuart King, John Morris, Gerry Whitlow About us Rolling chalk hills, magnificent ancient woodland, rare wildlife, picturesque villages nestled in tranquil valleys criss-crossed by a network of ancient routeways - it’s no surprise the Chilterns is protected in law as one of the finest landscapes in the United Kingdom. The Chilterns was designated as an AONB in 1965, and in 2004 the Chilterns Conservation Board (CCB) was set up to conserve and enhance the special qualities of the area. Yet the AONB’s location– on the doorstep of London and other rapidly-growing urban areas – means this important landscape is under huge environmental and development pressure, not least housing and transport infrastructure growth. The CCB has a small core team based in Chinnor, South Oxfordshire. We work with a wide range of people and organisations to care for and protect the area, and to encourage others to enjoy and learn about it. Partnership working is key to what we do and how we achieve our objectives. To find out more about the structure and work of the CCB, please visit www.chilternsaonb.org. The CCB is in the process of creating a 5 yearly Management Plan for the Chilterns. You can read a copy of the draft plan here.

We would also like to thank the many and varied volunteers who help the Trust carry out conservation management on nature reserves and in the wider countryside; without their help we would be unable to make such an amazing positive difference to local wildlife. The Conservation Report was written by the Biodiversity Team with significant input (especially the case studies) from a large number of other staff whose time and assistance was crucial in being able to deliver the report. Finally but definitely not least, we would also like to thank all the Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire Wildlife Trust members, donors and grant giving bodies whose financial support makes our work possible. Special thanks go to: Colin Williams and Andy Coulson-Phillips for their work on the case studies, and to Andy Fairbairn for data processing.
