  • Lca 16.5 Ashley Green Settled Plateau
    LCA 16.5 ASHLEY GREEN SETTLED PLATEAU LCA in Context LCA XX LCA 16.5 ASHLEY GREEN SETTLED PLATEAU KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Elevated, undulating plateau, of chalk overlain by clay with flints, which gives rise to loamy/clayey soils with impeded drainage. • Relatively large fields of arable cultivation, interspersed with smaller fields of rough grazing, pasture and paddock on village edges. Defined by hedgerows with trees and occasional fenced or open boundaries. • Small pockets of woodland scattered across the plateau, with a significant area of ancient broadleaved woodland located at Hockeridge Wood in the north and orchards south of Ashley Green. • Villages are spread linearly along roads, often joining one another e.g. Botley and Ley Hill and Lye Green and Orchard Leigh. A mix of modern and historically vernacular buildings. • Leyhill Common is a distinctive area of neutral grassland amongst broadleaved, mixed and yew woodland crossed by straight rural roads. It has been a golf course since 1900. • Extended fields with extensive boundary loss and 20th century enclosure dominate the area. Pre 18th century enclosures occur in proximity to settlements. • A medieval barn and moated site at Grove Farm and Whelpley Hill camp, a prehistoric or medieval fortification are scheduled monuments. Other archaeological features relate to the clay and flint geology e.g. Medieval pottery and Neolithic flints. • Local footpaths occur frequently, crossing farmland and woodland and linking villages. • The A416 and B405 cut through the landscape, and form the structure of linear settlements. • Views often across fields to a wooded or open skyline, with some to Chesham and the adjacent ridge and valley landscape.

  • A Fifteenth-Century Pottery and Tile Kiln at Leyhill, Latimer, Buckinghamshire
    A FIFTEENTH-CENTURY POTTERY AND TILE KILN AT LEYHILL, LATIMER, BUCKINGHAMSHIRE MICHAEL FARLEY & JO LAWSON A single-flue pottery kiln built of tile and brick and constructed within a disused roof-tile kiln is described. The pottery kiln utilised structural features of the preceding tile kiln and there seems to have been little interval between the two episodes of use. Archaeomagnetic dates suggest a date in the late fifteenth century. The products of both kilns are described and parallels discussed.

  • BUCKINGHAMSHIRE POTS, POTTERS and POTTERIES, C.1200–1910 by MICHAEL FARLEY and BARBARA HURMAN Offprinted from RECORDS of BUCKS
    BUCKINGHAMSHIRE POTS, POTTERS AND POTTERIES, C.1200–1910 BY MICHAEL FARLEY AND BARBARA HURMAN Offprinted from RECORDS OF BUCKS Vol. 55 2015 BUCKINGHAMSHIRE POTS, POTTERS AND POTTERIES, c.1200–1910 MICHAEL FARLEY AND BARBARA HURMAN An attempt is made to list Buckinghamshire’s pottery production sites and potters from the thirteenth century until c.1910 and to give a short description of their products where known. The information is derived from confirmed kiln sites, from surface finds of ‘waster’ material which indicate production, and from a range of documentary sources including field names. There remains considerable scope for further local research; a number of suspected production sites have not yet been located on the ground and further local study would certainly identify other potters and link named potters to specific locations. Several features have emerged from the study. Firstly, a number of production sites are known to have been active in recent centuries, but for which there is no earlier record. It is suspected that some of these may have had earlier undocumented activity. Secondly, and perhaps unsurprisingly, many pottery centres were located on agriculturally marginal land. Thirdly, several of the pottery families followed their trade over generations and this is likely to have been the case long before documentation becomes available. Finally, the number of ‘pot hawkers’ recorded, particularly in the mid-nineteenth century, is surprising as it almost equals the number of working potters; their role in distributing the wares of country potteries may have been underestimated in the past. quently exposed, for example by being ploughed up, I NTRODUCT ION weathering of their relatively soft and open fabric Until shortly before the Roman conquest all pottery may leave little trace of them.
