  • 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.

  • Excursion to Oxford
    338 EXOURSION TO OXFORD. WHIT-MONDAY, MAY 17TH, AND FOLLOWING DAY. Directors-Prof. PRESTWICH, M.A., F.R.S., F.G.S., &c., and JAMES PARKER, Eflq., M.A., F.G.S. (Repo,·t by W. H. HUDLESTON, Esq., M.A., F.G.S.) The party were received by the Directors about noon, when Prof. Prestwich commenced a demonstration of the palreontological collection inl the University Museum, directing attention more especially to the fossils from the neighbourhood. Amongst the Portland fossils are some very fine specimens of Ammonites pectinatus, a new species figured but not described by Phillips in the Geology of Oxford. In the Kimmeridge Olay of the neighbourhood Rhynchvnella inconstansoccurs sparingly towards the base, and Exogyra virgula is tolerably common, but Ostrea deltoidea is reported to be scarce. A somewhat unexpected cir­ cumstance is the occurrence of Rynch. inconstans, in what appears to be a Corallian matrix from the neighbourhood of Marcham. The Oxford Museum is especially rich in the remains of the vertebrates from the various Oolitic beds of the neighbourhood, ranging from the small mammals of the Stonesfield Slate to the huge femur of the Cetiosaurus from Kirklington (the magnum bonum of Prof. Phillips).* The Professor alluded also to the recent discovery in the Kimmeridge Clay of Iguanodon Prestwich ii, a new species of that peculiar genus of Dinosaurs, which had not previously been discovered in strata older than the Wealden. After enjoying the hospitality of the Directors, the party pro­ ceeded eastwards in the direction of Shotover, under their guidance. Mr. Parker had provided for the use of the Members a very useful octavo tract, containing a map and sections of the strata south of Oxford, with explanatory text.

  • Cumnor Parish Neighbourhood Plan Important Views Report September 2020 Page 2 of 39
    Cumnor Parish Neighbourhood Plan Important Views Report September 2020 Introduction The parish of Cumnor sits on a Corallian Limestone Ridge in the north of the Vale of the White Horse District Council (VoWHDC) administrative area. With an elevation range across the parish of more than 100m there are many Important Views within the parish, in addition to commanding views into and from the parish. The VoWHDC’s Landscape Character Assessment1, Section 3.6, states: ‘To the north of the central Vale there is a broad east-west ridge of Corallian Limestone, often referred to as the ‘Mid Vale Ridge’. The northern edge of the ridge is marked by prominent, relatively steep, slopes. To the south, the ridge descends more gently, until it merges with the low-lying Vale centred on the River Ock. To the east, the ridge incorporates Boars Hill and Cumnor Hill to the west of Oxford’. It goes on to say in para 3.7: ‘the ridge forms a distinctive, often wooded, horizon in views north from the central Vale. The wooded backdrop is provided by the small blocks of woodland which pepper the ridge, as well as some extensive tracts of ancient woodland, particularly in the east of the District…including Wytham Great Wood. Among the key positive landscape features of the Wooded Corallian Landscape Ridge are the: ‘distant views out from the ridge, from elevated locations and the edges of woodland, including history views of the ‘dreaming spires’ to the east.” It goes on to say that this ridge “provides a rural wooded backdrop and treed skyline in views from the low-lying Vale to the south, in views from the River Thames, and views west from Oxford.’ The Landscape Strategy ‘for the Corallian Limestone Ridge with Woodland’ is to: ‘conserve the woodlands, hedges and riparian vegetation which give the ridge its treed character, protect remaining semi-natural habitats and resist further urbanising sprawl of low-density development”.
