The Wroxton Guide Post
The Wroxton Guide Post One of the treasures of Wroxton is its beautiful ironstone Guide Post or Pillar of 1686, one of the earliest of dated waymarkers. It indicates the ancient route to London from Wales and the west, used by salt merchants among others, as hinted at by the local field name Salt Furlong. The route turns off the modern A422 at Wroxton and continues to North Newington, then passes as a track skirting around the south of Banbury and marked on the Ordnance Survey as Salt Way. The modern footpath sign in the hedge behind the Post indicates a footpath to the neighbouring village of Balscote. The Ordnance Survey map shows the position of the post, actually some distance from the main A422. The green dotted line from near the site of the Post is the footpath to Balscote. A 1768 map of the area was made by Edward & Thomas Smith of Shrivenham, for the landowner Trinity College, Oxford. Entitled “A Map of the Common Fields, Meads and Commons of Roxton in the County of Oxford”, it is pre-Enclosure, and shows the furlongs or field strips and their owners. The Post is not shown, but the map of the junction (circled) shows that the Balscote footpath was then an important thoroughfare. One of the four faces of the Post is inscribed “To Chiping Norton”, and points to the southwest, along the former Balscote thoroughfare. The ancient road runs south from the junction and is named on the map as “To Blocksham”, the cartographer’s guess at the spelling of Bloxham. -

The History of Wroxton
The History of Wroxton For a relatively small village, Wroxton is rich in history. Mentioned in the Domesday Book, the village probably takes its name from "Wroces Stan" meaning buzzards' stone. In ancient times the village was crossed by various trackways, including the Saltway, the route from the Worcester salt works to London. Slight traces of a Roman settlement have also been discovered. By 1086 records refer to 24 tenants (2 serfs, 12 villani, and 10 boarders). It was in the middle ages and the establishment of Wroxton Abbey, however, that the village began to flourish. Michael Belet founded an Augustinian priory in honour of St. Mary in 1217 (hence the village has been referred to as Wroxton-St. Mary). He was granted a charter by King John for the foundation in 1209 and this was ratified by Henry III in 1251. He thus became prior and vicar and endowed the priory with his Wroxton manor house, demense, and additional properties. The original Chantry housed 12 canons. Over the next 300 years the priory buildings and grounds were modified and enlarged. Eventually the priory held virtually all the lands in the parish of Wroxton and nearby Balscot. The Priory of Canons Regular of St. Augustine continued until the dissolution of the monasteries under Henry VIII in 1536. In 1537 the lease was obtained by Sir Thomas Pope who held various positions at the court of Henry VIII including that of Guardian to the Princess Elizabeth. Sir Thomas, who founded Trinity College Oxford, bestowed the estates to Trinity, although he reserved the rights for the Pope family and their descendants to remain tenants of the estate. -
