Oxford Thames Classic Oxford Thames Classic Read a typical Oxford Thames trip below Because each trip has a different make up of guests, with different accommodation preferences and rowing speeds, each trip is different. But you can read how a typical trip worked out below. Monday Lechlade, our starting point, is a small town on the edge of the Cotswolds. Having spent Sunday night at Buscot Manor, we all meet at the Trout Inn Garden for a briefing and equipment discussion. Buscot Manor is a beautiful Queen Anne Manor House and provides excellent accommodation. Some of our guests are staying at the Riverside Inn in Lechlade. Looking back towards Lechlade from the St John’s Lock we get a view of the St Mathews Parish Church which inspired Shelley to write the poem ‘A Summer Evening Churchyard’. Also at St Johns Lock we pay our respects to the statue of Old Father Thames. After a few hours rowing we stop for Lunch at The Plough in Kelmscott (really lovely food!), and a chance to look round the Kelmscott Manor, the former home of William Morris and according to The Telegraph, one of the 10 greatest places to see English Art. www.kelmscottmanor.co.uk. This is indeed an ideal place for an extended stop, and we decide to stay a while and have tea at the Manor. After lunch we have a short row to the Swan Inn at Radcot, where we stop for a drink and leave the boats for the night. Our accommodation is at the Plough Hotel in Clanfield, which is a short taxi ride away from the Swan. During this stretch of the river we pass The Church of St. Michael and All Angels, in the village of Eaton Hastings. Tuesday In the minibus this morning touring the Cotswolds, starting with the village next to where we are staying, Bampton, where much of Downton Abbey was filmed! Lots of photo opportunities. Our bus tour continues around the Cotswolds, including the town of Burford, before a picnic lunch by the picturesque river Windrush, one of the tributaries of the Thames. The Windrush valley is home to some of England’s most beautiful and unspoilt villages. In the afternoon we row to Tadpole Bridge, which is about 4.5 miles. We passed under the ‘Old Man’s Footbridge’ which according to Fred Thacker, writing in 1909: Here on the Berkshire bank of old time stood an inn, in what was known as Clark's Garden, under the sign of "The Spotted Cow"; a scene of much gambling, cock fighting, and other shady proceedings; a "convenience snug" in truth, and remote enough for the purpose from the Faringdon and Bampton police. The place disappeared within living memory, along with the queer characters who frequented it. Evening meal and accommodation at Trout Inn at Tadpole Bridge. www.trout-inn.co.uk Wednesday A decent few hours of rowing this morning! 3 hrs. To the ‘Rose Revived’ Inn for lunch. The river Windrush joins the Thames at this point, on the banks of which we enjoyed a pleasant picnic only a few days ago! We have an excellent lunch in the garden of The Rose Revived INN https://www.oldenglishinns.co.uk/our-locations/the-rose-revived-witney On the way we passed and stopped for tea at Chimney Meadows nature reserve; known for its nationally acclaimed wetland meadows. www.bbowt.org.uk/reserves/chimney-meadows Row to Oxford Cruisers just outside the town of Eynsham (6 miles) we spend the evening at the Oxford Four Pillars hotel. A total of about 13 miles of rowing today – out best yet! Thursday Leaving Oxford Cruisers we approach the outskirts of Oxford after a few hours rowing, past the town of Eynsham to have lunch in the famous Trout Inn in Wolvercote. www.thetroutoxford.co.uk We pass the ruins of Godstow Nunnery as we leave Godstow Bridge. Through the lock and out onto the broad expanse of Port Meadow. On our left is the picnic spot where the story of Alice in Wonderland was conceived during a day trip from Oxford by Charles Dodson (aka Lewis Carroll). The whole area has connections with the story. Of course, we stop for coffee and a snack on the banks at this point! We can now see the ‘dreaming spires’ of Oxford in the distance! Our route takes us through the Victorian part of West Oxford to our final stopping point at Folly Bridge in the City Centre. To celebrate our arrival in Oxford we have a full supper at the excellent Folly Bridge Restaurant. Friday A day on the River in Oxford! We meet again at the Folly Bridge restaurant and divide for tours of Alice in Wonderland given by the historian Mark, and the Victorian and industrial parts of Oxford by the historian Liz Woolley. We’re not done with the river yet! After our tours we take a leisurely picnic on the river Cherwell Past ‘Mesopotamia’ to join the river Thames at the college boathouses just past the botanic gardens and Christchurch Meadows. .

  • London Marathon 1987
    London diary [In 1986, I started work at Queen Mary College, London, while still living in Wolvercote, on the northern edge of Oxford looking over Port Meadow. To celebrate the move, I applied for a place in the 1987 London marathon. This diary records what happened. During this time, Hester was 11, Neill 9 and James 7. Footnotes are editorial, having been added while typing it up. – PJC, January 2014.] Saturday 6/12/86 A fat letter came for me this morning. Through the address window my age, 40, was clearly visible – a double injustice since I am in fact 39. From this I was able to guess what it must be, and from the thickness of the letter I assumed that the answer must be yes. I had been almost certain that I wouldn’t get in. My qualifications – a veteran, never run a marathon before, and (presumably most important) never been turned down for the London before – didn’t look too good, in view of the “one in four” that had been quoted. They weren’t to know (and certainly wouldn’t have been interested if they had known) that, in my long-gone youth, I was Australian Uni- versities’ Cross-Country champion, University of Queensland Athletic Club track 10000 metres record holder (31.20) amd had run 15 miles on the road in 83.28; nor that, while yet far from those times, in the last few years I have come from complete unfitness to a half-marathon time of 79.39 at Witney this September. The only clue they had was that I had given my expected time as 3.05.00, which might be a little surprising coming from a veteran novice.

  • The Golden Compass
    Inspector Morse in Oxfordshire Oxford has long been home to Morse author Colin Dexter and famously became the backdrop to his popular murder mystery novels. It is not surprising that when ITV came to shoot the 33 Morse films, Oxford and the surrounding county consistently made it on to the screen. Inspector Morse is best known for an appreciation of beer, Wagner compositions, crossword puzzles, and zipping around his beloved city of dreaming spires in a red Jaguar car, usually accompanied by his long- suffering sidekick Sergeant Lewis played by actor Kevin Whateley. Enjoy a taste of Oxfordshire as you wind your way around some unmistakeable county locations in pursuit of mystery, Morse and murder! 1. Sheep Street 33, Burford The picturesque medieval town of Burford (known as the “Gateway to the Cotswolds”) features in The Remorseful Day where John Barron falls to his death from a ladder. He is pushed by a hooded culprit while painting Mrs Bayley’s house. 2/3.Blenheim Palace & Combe sawmill gate. Set in 2100 acres of beautiful parkland the unique English Baroque architecture of Blenheim Palace is on view in The Way through the Woods. Morse drives up to Blenheim to investigate after George Daley’s body is discovered inside the Combe sawmill gate, to the west of the estate. Morse returns to Blenheim to interview a worker on the grounds. (Blenheim Palace & Gardens, Woodstock. Open: 10:30 - 5:30 daily Tel: 01993 810500.

  • Tracing the River Thames
    37 TRACING THE RIVER THAMES "ALONG HIS SILVER- WINDING WAY" AIDEEN E. BRODY テムズ川、水源から河口まで A. E.ブローディ テムズ川の源流グロスタシャからロンドンを越えて北海に蝣JfL入するテムズ川の流れにつ いて述べる。英国の南部を西から束-と横切るテムズ川は、有史以前より交通路として使 われてきたが、上流では静かな田園地方を流れる川であるが、下流ではこの国特有のさま ざまな歴史を反映している。この河川をめぐる有名な行事、人びと、場所、この河川を利 用して行われるスポーツ、河畔の娯楽のあれこれについて述べ、今日のテムズが抱える環 境問是凱二も触れた。 The poet Edmund Spenser wrote of walking "Along the shoare of silver stream- ing Themmes." Milton called it "royaトtowered Thame." Wordsworth surveyed the scene from one of its bridges and penned his famous line "Earth has not anything to show more fair." What is it about England's River Thames that has inspired so many of her poets to rhapsodize on its charms? All rivers are mesmeric with their ever- changing reflections in rippling water. The Thames adds to this with the constant movement of all varieties of river craft ; it glides past elegant buildings and under curved bridges ; it responds dramatically to changes of tide and weather, and, above all, it is connected with so much of England's history. No wonder, then, that such a source of inspiration is beloved by the poets. In this report, we will follow the river from its beginnings in Gloucestershire to its end beyond London, taking a look at places located on the river, at events connected with the river and, less seriously, at attractive riverside relaxations. 38 Bul.
