Other medieval freeholds included Haw and Querns farms and various monastic properties. In the 17th century Goring Priory and Elvendon manors were absorbed into a large Hardwick estate based in neighbouring Whitchurch, and in the early 18th Henry Allnutt (d. 1725) gave Goring manor as an endowment for his new Goring Heath almshouse. Gatehampton manor, having belonged to the mostly resident Whistler family for almost 200 years, became attached c.1850 to an estate focused on Basildon Park (Berks.), until the latter was dispersed in 1929−30 and Gatehampton manor itself was broken up in 1943. The Hardwick estate, which in 1909 included 1,505 a. in Goring,3 was broken up in 1912, and landownership has since remained fragmented. Significant but more short-lived holdings were amassed by John Nicholls from the 1780s, by the Gardiners of Whitchurch from 1819, and by Thomas Fraser c.1820, the first two accumulations including the rectory farm and tithes.
  • Report on Community Transport Provision in Cherwell District

    Report on Community Transport Provision in Cherwell District

    Appendix 2 Report on community transport provision in Cherwell District Results for and on behalf of Cherwell District Council By Alix Michaelis and Emily Lewis Oxfordshire Rural Community Council December 2009 Oxfordshire Rural Community Council is registered in England as a company limited by guarantee (no.2461552) and as a charity (no.900560). Its registered office is Jericho Farm, Worton, Witney, Oxfordshire, OX29 4SZ Report on existing community transport provision in Cherwell District and possible ways of enhancing this provision Summary A key finding from this research is that awareness of the work of formal car schemes (and particularly Banbury Volunteer Bureau) is extremely limited in the district, particularly in comparison with the more widespread awareness of Cherwell District Dial-a-Ride. This lack of awareness is evident amongst residents (including those with mobility impairments) and amongst local councils, who were also rarely aware of the existence of the scheme. Conversely parish councils and meetings were very likely to say that informal lift-giving is taking place within their communities, and were also commonly willing to help recruit volunteers in meeting the needs of their residents. The recent transport needs surveys in the area highlight that accessing medical appointments is a common problem for a minority of people in rural Cherwell, particularly when GP practices are themselves in a rural location. In these circumstances public transport is unlikely to be able to meet these needs, and it is in this area that further work could yield results through the enhancement of existing community transport provision. If awareness of the work of volunteer driving were to be increased, and more volunteers recruited in villages where there currently are none, there would be an improvement in the accessibility of services for those who are experiencing isolation.

    Claydon with Clattercote Newsletter Village History Supplement January 2014 A LIFE IN CLAYDON Part 6 Continuing the recollections of Doris Beswick nee Bloomfield who has lived most of her life in the village, beginning at the Top Lock in 1925, with her father Ted, mother Beat and four brothers. Ted was the foreman of the stretch of canal from Fenny Compton to Banbury. Changes at Home and Away Doris had begun working for Canon Williams and his family at St Mary’s Vicarage in Banbury in April 1942. In 1946, a few months after the end of the War, Canon Williams was transferred to St Peter’s Church in Bournemouth. Doris was asked to go too, along with Vella, the other maid, who had returned to service following her period of war work at the NAAFI in Shenington. Doris while in Bournemouth The Vicarage in Bournemouth was much smaller than that in Banbury, as was the household. There was only Canon and Mrs Williams and one of their children. In service, there was just Doris and Vella, with Vella taking on the role of cook, but she would also clean the kitchen and help with polishing the silver while Doris was a maid of all trades. As in Banbury, Mrs Williams frequently helped with the chores. With no handyman, Doris took over some of those tasks, such as cleaning the Bishop’s shoes while Mrs Williams relieved Doris of one of her Banbury jobs of cleaning out the grates and setting and lighting the fires. The girls were allowed to take their time off together and the family would organise their meals themselves and do all of the washing up.

    Clifton Past and Present

    Clifton Past and Present L.E. Gardner, 1955 Clifton, as its name would imply, stands on the side of a hill – ‘tun’ or ‘ton’ being an old Saxon word denoting an enclosure. In the days before the Norman Conquest, mills were grinding corn for daily bread and Clifton Mill was no exception. Although there is no actual mention by name in the Domesday Survey, Bishop Odo is listed as holding, among other hides and meadows and ploughs, ‘Three Mills of forty one shillings and one hundred ells, in Dadintone’. (According to the Rev. Marshall, an ‘ell’ is a measure of water.) It is quite safe to assume that Clifton Mill was one of these, for the Rev. Marshall, who studied the particulars carefully, writes, ‘The admeasurement assigned for Dadintone (in the survey) comprised, as it would seem, the entire area of the parish, including the two outlying townships’. The earliest mention of the village is in 1271 when Philip Basset, Baron of Wycomb, who died in 1271, gave to the ‘Prior and Convent of St Edbury at Bicester, lands he had of the gift of Roger de Stampford in Cliftone, Heentone and Dadyngtone in Oxfordshire’. Another mention of Clifton is in 1329. On April 12th 1329, King Edward III granted a ‘Charter in behalf of Henry, Bishop of Lincoln and his successors, that they shall have free warren in all their demesne, lands of Bannebury, Cropperze, etc. etc. and Clyfton’. In 1424 the Prior and Bursar of the Convent of Burchester (Bicester) acknowledged the receipt of thirty-seven pounds eight shillings ‘for rent in Dadington, Clyfton and Hampton’.
