    Efl' lv^<*cr\2 S 8 o x 6 West Area’s Millennium Festival Celebration Wildlife Encounter 2000 at View Island, Reading Liz O’Neill, Partnerships Officer West Area, Thames Region Foreword It was in October 1999, when I first heard of the Agency's concept of Millennium Festivals (that seems a very long time ago!). The concept was a spectacular one - to celebrate the millennium by leaving a legacy and working with local communities - but to put it into practice was going to be a challenge. The project team, who worked on West Area's Millennium Festival at View Island, came from all different functions of the Agency and for most it was the first time they had carried out project work of this nature and worked in a truly multifunctional team. During the course of the project there were many problems, but the team overcame these hurdles by working together, being innovative and having what can only be described as dog-eared determination! The physical improvements to the island and the two-day event went well and we received very positive feedback from members of the public. The staff involved enjoyed working on the project and also got a sense of purpose and pride in what they had achieved or been a part of. These feelings raised morale long after the event. I feel very privileged to have managed West Area's Festival, which left such a wonderful legacy in View Island. I am proud of the project team who worked really hard to pull it all together and the additional people who helped on the two days.

OXFORD TO CRICKLADE NB: going upstream Oxford LEAVING Folly Bridge, winding along the river past the Oxford Gas-works, and passing under the line of the G.W.R., we soon come to Osney Lock (falls ft. 6 in.), close by which was the once-famous Abbey. There is nothing left to attest its former magnificence and arrest our progress, so we soon come to Botley Bridge, over which passes the western road fro Oxford to Cheltenham , Bath , &c.; and a little higher are four streams, the bathing-place of "Tumbling bay" being on the westward one. Keeping straight on, Medley Weir is reached (falls 2 ft.), and then a long stretch of shallow water succeeds, Godstow Lock until we reach Godstow Lock. Godstow Lock (falls 3 ft. 6 in., pay at Medley Weir) has been rebuilt, and the cut above deepened, the weeds and mud banks cleared out, so as to leave th river good and navigable up to King's Weir.

    VCH Oxfordshire • Texts in Progress • Caversham (August 2019) • © VCH Oxfordshire • Economic Hist. • p. 1 VCH Oxfordshire Texts in Progress Caversham Economic History Until the mid 19th century Caversham’s economy was based on mixed farming, woodland exploitation, and milling and other rural crafts, with neighbouring Reading providing a ready market from the Middle Ages onwards. From c.1850, as Reading expanded following the arrival of the railway, Caversham’s southern part developed larger-scale manufacturing, retail, and service businesses, as well as becoming a dormitory for working- and middle- class incomers employed in Reading itself. By 1908 such people made up around half of the parish’s total population. Industry declined in the mid 20th century, although a moderately successful retail and service sector continued in the early 21st. The Agricultural Landscape Like its neighbours the parish extended from the Thames into the Chiltern foothills, giving access to a typical mixture of meadows, open-field arable, closes, and coppice woods. Meadowland was concentrated on low-lying ground close to the river, while the main open fields, well established by the late 12th century1 and enclosed in the 1830s, surrounded Caversham and Lower Caversham immediately to the north.2 Amongst the larger fields were Hemdean, Balmer and West field, with Borough and Grove fields further east.3 The field name ‘Breach’ suggests medieval expansion of cultivation in the far south-east, although from c.1200 expansion north of there was restricted by the presence of a deer park.4 The somewhat less fertile central and northern parts of the parish were characterized by early enclosure,5 though still intermixed, in the 16th century, with numerous mainly small open fields, of which all except Lye field were enclosed before 1834.6 Medieval and later woodland was concentrated in the north and east, though much clearance had taken place by the 18th century.
