  • Timeline of Marston Below Is a Brief Timeline of the History of Marston Courtesy of Stephanie Jenkins of Headington.Org.Uk
    Timeline of Marston Below is a brief timeline of the history of Marston courtesy of Stephanie Jenkins of headington.org.uk. There have been two Palaeolithic finds in Marston, but the Romans do not appear to have had a BC settlement there AD 1086 Domesday Book: Marston (then a hamlet of Headington) was too small to be mentioned Until this time, all the low ground of Marston is believed to have been under water. Old Marston village AD 1100 was now an island in the Cherwell. It had its own chapel, which was dependent on Headington. It was part of the Royal Manor at Headington (which also owned Binsey and Osney). First written occurrence of the name of Marston. Its chapel is referred to as a church for the first time, and by the end of the twelfth century it was dedicated to St Nicholas. Henry I gave the chapel of Marston to the canons of St. Frideswide’s. AD 1122 The chancel arch and seven arches of the nave survive which suggests a considerable community cultivating surrounding fields – workable by ditching and draining. The tenant had rights of commoning cattle and cutting furze, fern and dead wood. In this year the population of Marston consisted of the Vicar, two freeholders (the miller and a man appearing to live at Court Place) and 46 unfree tenants. First mention of a Marston ferry. Hugh de Molendino held a mill at Marston. (Hundred Rolls). There was a mill at the end of Mill Lane near Sescut Farm which would disappear and re-appear in the AD 1279 records up to the 1400s.

  • Oxford Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan (LCWIP)
    Oxford LCWIP v192001 Approved by Cabinet 190317 Foreword by Cllr Yvonne Constance Oxfordshire County Council is tackling the challenges of Climate Change, housing growth, air pollution and the growing public health crisis of physical inactivity by a range of innovative transport measures. Encouraging and increasing walking and cycling is core to our approach to transport solutions and will feature highly in our new Local Transport and Connectivity Plan. This will build on the Oxford Transport Strategy within our current Local Transport Plan which has the ambition that Oxford will become a world class cycling city with an outstanding public realm for walking. The Council is embarking on a range of innovative measures to achieve this transformational change in travel behaviour. In particular, we are consulting on ”Connecting Oxford” which proposes to introduce traffic control points in the city centre and a work place levy charge for businesses in the south east arc. As part of this process, we recognise the importance of the Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan (LCWIP). Oxford is already famous for its high levels of cycling and has one of the highest levels of walking in the UK, but we know we can and need to do more. The importance of Oxford LCWIP is that it: Sets out the evidence of how we can achieve a very challenging but realistic 50% increase in cycling in the City Lays out a comprehensive cycle network to focus expenditure for best value Identifies a list of infrastructure improvements for both walking and cycling based on best practice and our Cycle and Walking Design Guides Summarises the evidence for supportive measures, such as Low Traffic Neighbourhoods and controlled parking zones And provides cost estimates for these schemes we can use in future bids and in planning decisions We have worked with many stakeholders in preparing this document.

  • Marston Meadows, Oxford
    Marston Meadows, Oxford Report for the Rare Plants Group of the Ashmolean Natural History Society of Oxfordshire and the New Marston Wildlife Group J. A. Webb Figure 1: ‘Litle Millponde lotte meade’, Marston Meadows, 2011 Summary There are 11 plants on the draft Rare Plants Register (RPR) to be found in the meadows adjacent to the Cherwell River in the New-Old Marston area within the New Marston Meadows SSSI boundaries. There are a further three plants on the draft RPR which are outside the SSSI but are within a Local Wildlife Site. Six species on the National Red Lists and four UKBAP Priority plant species are present. Thus there is a total of 14 draft RPR species in the whole area that forms a green north-south ribbon through the centre of Oxford. The whole green corridor of meadows adjacent to the Cherwell through Oxford is a Conservation Target Area. There are management issues relevant to all the rare plants species found. The importance of the Marston Meadows Area and the Rare Plants Register The Rare Plants Register (RPR) is an initiative of the Ashmolean Natural History Society of Oxfordshire (ANHSO) following Botanical Society of the British Isles guidelines and has involved voluntary surveying by botanist members of the Rare Plants Group of the ANHSO throughout the county over the last six years, with the aim of locating and assessing the populations of the plant species that are now rare. 1 Plants are designated as ‘locally scarce’, and have a place on the register, if they have 10 or fewer sites in the county (old Oxfordshire, Vice County 23) or if they have more than 10 Oxfordshire sites, but are rare or scarce nationally.

  • Oxfordshire Liveable Streets Statement on "Connecting Oxford"
    Oxfordshire Liveable Streets Statement on "Connecting Oxford" November 2019 Summary Background Connecting Oxford OLS Response Connecting Oxford Plus Politics Statement on "Connecting Oxford" Page 1 Summary "Connecting Oxford" is the county and city councils' proposal to improve transportation in ​ ​ Oxford and between Oxford and outlying towns. Oxfordshire Liveable Streets supports this proposal. We believe it will succeed in its main aim of reducing congestion and increasing connectivity. We also believe it will significantly increase the share of journeys taken by active and sustainable means. This makes it probably the most ambitious pro-climate, pro-liveability, pro-public-health transport initiative in the UK. To increase its chances of success, we would like to see liveability improvements included. Experience from other large-scale transport reforms nearby suggests that the public reaction is better when public-realm improvement is coupled to the transport improvement. Background As congestion gets worse, small changes and modifications have diminishing prospect of improving the movement of people. For example, £1.35 million was spent in 2015 ​ ​ re-developing The Plain roundabout at the eastern end of Magdalen Bridge. Yet the area remains highly congested and the number of crashes is still high.1 This kind of "expensive incrementalism", to borrow OLS director Danny Yee's phrase, is ​ ​ repeated up and down the country. Billions of pounds have been spent on schemes trying to ostensibly improve conditions for walkers and cyclists while not interrupting car traffic 'flow'. The highway authority in Oxford, as in most cities and towns across the country, is the county council. The city council is responsible for air quality.
