  • Parish Magazine
    St Andrew’s Hagbourne PARISH MAGAZINE ALTERNATIVE ISSUE – NOVEMBER 2020 Thank you very much to the Parish Councils for giving the Parish Magazine a temporary home on their websites until we are able to safely go back to producing and distributing a printed copy. www.easthagbourne.net www.westhagbourne.org ST ANDREW’S HAGBOURNE PARISH MAGAZINE page 1 NOVEMBER 2020 ST ANDREW’S CHURCH, HAGBOURNE The United Benefice of Blewbury, East and West Hagbourne and Upton together with Aston Tirrold, Aston Upthorpe, North Moreton and South Moreton. __________________________________________________________________________ Rector’s Reflections A Nation Remembers On the 26th April 1923, a young bride laid her bouquet on the tomb of the Unknown Soldier, as a tribute to her brother Fergus, who had died in the Battle of Loos. Perhaps you have seen the tomb when visiting Westminster Abbey. The bride in question was Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, and her husband was the Duke of York, later King George VI. Many years later, before her own death, Elizabeth expressed the wish that her wreath be placed on the same tomb, on the day after her death. And this is indeed what happened, her daughter Queen Elizabeth II laying the wreath herself. At this time of year, many of us will be gathering around war memorials to remember all who have given their lives for this country in war, especially in the First and Second World Wars. Some will be able to attend an act of remembrance in person; others will be attending virtually. But whether the act of the remembrance is made in person or virtually, it will be made.

  • Bix and the Assendons
    point your feet on a new path Bix and the Assendons Distance: 8½ km=5½ miles easy walking Region: Chilterns Date written: 5-oct-2015 Author: Phegophilos Last update: 5-jan-2021 Refreshments: Lower and Middle Assendon Map: Explorer 171 (Chiltern Hills West) hopefully not needed Problems, changes? We depend on your feedback: [email protected] Public rights are restricted to printing, copying or distributing this document exactly as seen here, complete and without any cutting or editing. See Principles on main webpage. Meadows, woodland, pubs, deer park, views, pubs In Brief This unusual walk in typical Chilterns landscapes is full of variety and interest. The three villages in the title are one parish joined in history and between them are woodlands, meadows and parkland. The route of this walk finds a surprising lost path through a deer park direct to the charming village of Lower Assendon with “private” access to one of the best pub / restaurants in the Henley area (to enquire at the Golden Ball , ring 01491- 574157). Another great Chiltern pub features at the end of the walk (to enquire at the Rainbow Inn , ring 01491- 574879), making this a kind of double pub walk. There are no nettles to speak of on this walk so bare legs are unlikely to be irritated. However, in high summer, because of the rare paths used on this walk, some of the hedgerows may be overgrown and a hiking stick will be useful. In damper seasons, boots may be an advantage in the long woodland walk; otherwise good walking shoes or trainers are adequate.
