  • Cropredy Bridge by MISS M
    Cropredy Bridge By MISS M. R. TOYNBEE and J. J. LEEMING I IE bridge over the River Chenveff at Cropredy was rebuilt by the Oxford­ shire County Council in J937. The structure standing at that time was for T the most part comparatively modern, for the bridge, as will be explained later, has been thoroughly altered and reconstructed at least twice (in J780 and 1886) within the last 160 years. The historical associations of the bridge, especiaffy during the Civil War period, have rendered it famous, and an object of pilgrimage, and it seems there­ fore suitable, on the occasion of its reconstruction, to collect together such details as are known about its origin and history, and to add to them a short account of the Civil War battle of 1644, the historical occurrence for which the site is chiefly famous. The general history of the bridge, and the account of the battle, have been written by Miss Toynbee; the account of the 1937 reconstruction is by Mr. Leeming, who, as engineer on the staff of the Oxfordshire County Council, was in charge of the work. HISTORY OF TIlE BRIDGE' The first record of the existence of a bridge at Cropredy dates, so far as it has been possible to discover, from the year 1312. That there was a bridge in existence before 1312 appears to be pretty certain. Cropredy was a place of some importance in the :\1iddle Ages. It formed part of the possessions of the See of Lincoln, and is entered in Domesday Book as such. 'The Bishop of Lincoln holds Cropelie.

  • Claydon with Clattercote Newsletter
    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.
