  • Charles I and the Perrots of Northleigh
    Charles I and the Perrots of Northleigh By MIss M. R. TOYNBEE DAY at Northleigh in the spring of 1944 brought vividly to my mind A the fact that the followingJune would see the three-hundredth anniversary of Charles I's famous night-march out of Oxford. It seemed to be an appro­ priate occasion for putting on record what is known of the !(jng's visit to the Perrot family at Northleigh en route for the West. Ever since I saw, at the Old Times Exhibition held at Oxford in April, 1937, the ring and the pendant given by him as mementoes to two daughters of the house, I had been anxious to investigate the story, to which I referred in the recent article by Mr. J. J. Leeming and myself on Cropredy Bridge.' The following pages are an attempt to set out the result of my researches. The only documentary evidence, so far as I am aware, for the orthleigh visit is a passage in the Royalist newspaper Mercurius Aulitus for' TIM 23 Wuke, ending June 8. 1644', under date 'TUESDAY. lulM 4 '. 'His Majestie having eaten and refreshed himselfe this morning, at Master Parret.r house in Northlye, where He drew up His Army, went forwards in the afternoone to Bourlon on Ihe Water ,. From Sir Edward Walker's account of the march' it appears that Charles reached Northleigh about nine o'clock on the morning of 4 June, some twelve hours after leaving Oxford. Having safely I OxonWr,sU" ru (1938), pp. 1!l9-30. Some account of the march and of the circunutanccs leading up to it will be found there .

    HANBOROUGH GATE Long Hanborough, Oxfordshire Made for life. Join our legacy. Since 1927, Pye Homes has always taken the same pride in the homes and communities we have built in Oxfordshire. Although many things have changed in that time, our values have stayed the same, because so much of what was true then is still true today. We always take the same care in how we build, because that care ensures that your home is built to last. It means that everything about your home is perfectly placed, from the moment we lay the foundations, to the moment we open your door to show you around. By combining the best innovations in design and materials which have stood the test of time, we build in harmony with nature and the local legacy, so that new homes simply belong as part of a community, right from the start. It means always giving the same kind of personal care and integrity that our founder Jack Pye would recognise and be proud to acknowledge with his famous handshake. Those values, and that same regard for legacy, has led us to join with Blenheim and to make our commitment to their Legacy Principles. Together we share a desire for progress alongside a deep-rooted sense of place and enduring connection to our neighbours and local communities. Pye Homes. Made for life. 2 3 “Unlike many new developments, Hanborough Gate has been thoughtfully designed with plenty of green spaces and a feeling of openness which was important to us. It is also in a wonderful location being close to numerous walks through villages, woods and along the riverside.
