Your attention is drawn to the Important Notice on the last page of the brochure. Gloucestershire • Monks Cottage is situated on the edge of the charming unspoilt village of Eastleach. Eastleach is a rare village having two Churches on either side of the River Leach. On the western side St Andrew’s Church is in the village of Eastleach Turville whilst just over the river and over the bridge is St Michael and St Martin at Eastleach Martin. Both Churches are in view of each other and both extremely pretty and date from the 14th Century. The fact that there were two hamlets with two Churches is an indication that the two were separately owned and held by different Lords of the Manor. • Within about 2 miles of the village is Hatherop, which has a very good primary school and Hatherop Castle School whilst Coln St Aldwyns is about 3 miles which has a village store. • Local farm shops including the Organic Farm Shop at Cirencester, Daylesford Farm Shop and Upton Smokery in Burford are all within easy reach. • The area is well served by excellent pub/restaurants including the New Inn at Coln St Aldwyns, Five Alls at Filkins, The Swan at Southrop, The Wheatsheaf at Northleach, The Wild Rabbit and the Kingham Plough at Kingham and The Swan at Swinbrook. • Communications in the area are excellent with easy access to the A40 and M40 to London. Trains run to London regularly from either Charlbury (approximately 13 miles distant) taking around 80 minutes or from Swindon (approximately 12 miles) with most trains being about 55 minutes. • Sporting and leisure facilities in the area include a number of golf courses including Highworth and Cirencester, racing at Cheltenham, Newbury and Warwick, hunting with the VWH, polo at Cirencester Park and water sports at the Cotswold Water Park. There is excellent shooting in the area as well as an abundance of wonderful walking and riding in the hidden Cotswold Valleys. • Gloucestershire and Oxfordshire is noted for its extensive schooling including Hatherop Castle and St Hughes at Lechlade with also a large number of schools for all ages in Cheltenham and Oxford.

Cotswolds Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment White Paper,1 Biodiversity 20202 and the European Landscape Convention,3 we are revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas North (NCAs). These are areas that share similar landscape characteristics, and which East follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision-making framework for the natural environment. Yorkshire & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform West their decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a East landscape scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage Midlands broader partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will West also help to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. Midlands East of Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features England that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each London area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental South East Opportunity (SEOs) are suggested, which draw on this integrated information. South West The SEOs offer guidance on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future.

  • River Leach – Cotswold Fly Fishers
    River Leach – Cotswold Fly Fishers A Project Proposal by the Wild Trout Trust - April 2015 1 1. Introduction This report is the output of a site visit to the River Leach on water controlled by the Cotswold Fly Fishers (CFF). The CFF water runs from a short distance downstream of the village of Southrop to just upstream of Lechlade Mill. The water is split into two beats running either side of the A361 at Little Faringdon, with a short gap in the middle where the river runs through the Lechlade Trout Fishery and fish farm. Approximately 3km of channel was inspected in all, from a point at National Grid Ref SP 208 031 down to SU 230998. The Leach is classified as being of “moderate status” under the Water Framework Directive. Waterbody ID no. GB106039030040. The visit was initially requested by Jim Seymour, Fisheries Technical Officer with the Environment Agency. The Environment Agency, in partnership with the CFF and the Cotswold Rivers Trust (CRT) are seeking to identify reaches of river where habitat quality might be restricting rivers from meeting their full potential, and where there might be scope for enhancement. In recent years, wild brown trout Salmo trutta numbers appear to have dropped and all parties are keen to explore options to support and improve local fish populations. Comments in this report are based on observations on the day of the site visit and discussions with Mr. David Reinger (CFF) and Mr. Trevor Cramphorn (CFF and CRT). Throughout the report, normal convention is followed with respect to bank identification, i.e.

  • Archaeology from the Air in the Upper Thames Valley
    - -. Archaeology from the Air in the Upper Thames Valley By D. N. RILEY INTRODUCTION ERIAL reconnaissance and photography, mainly carried out by the Alate Major G. W. G. Allen, have made very important contributions in the past fifteen years to the archaeology of the upper Thames country. When flying here during a dry summer, vestiges of the works of early man may be seen almost everywhere in the gravel terraces alongside the river, revealed by the crops growing on the sites. Most of the ancient sites are on arable land, and all mounds, banks and hollows have long been levelled,l but beneath the ploughed surface, filled~in ditches and pits remain undisturbed and produce crop-marks whenever conditions are suitable. The writer had the good fortune to do a great deal of flying over this part of England and to get to know it well from the air. The present paper is based on this local knowledge, aided by the collection of photographs left to the Ashmolean Museum by Major Allen and others taken by the writer. A tremendous amount remains to be done, both in the air and on the ground, and many of the sites described below are unexplained, but it is hoped that this survey, which is a preliminary attempt to map and classify the aerial discoveries, will do something to clear the ground for future work. An apology is needed for the large amount of speculation and the infrequency of definite conclusions in this account, a state of affairs which is due to the few opportunities which have yet been available to investigate the sites on the ground.
