  • Pilgrimage to Binsey: Medieval and Modern
    Binsey: Oxford’s Holy Place edited by Lydia Carr, Russell Dewhurst and Martin Henig Archaeopress 2014, pages 81-88 PILGRIMAGE TO BINSEY: MEDIEVAL AND MODERN LYDIA CARR Binsey’s holy well, with its literary and spiritual overtones, represents a key attraction of the little church for the modern visitor. In this brief essay, the broad history of pilgrimage in England is considered before approaching Binsey’s own post-Reformation history. Others have dealt with the history of St Margaret’s Well authoritatively in this volume; little of value can be added here to these excellent historical and archaeological syntheses. PILGRIMAGE IN ENGLAND: SACRED SPRINGS The attitude of the present English church towards holy wells is a peculiar one. Where other nations attempted to ‘reform’ away all trace of superstitious water, or else ‘Lourdize’ springs into a holy business enterprise, England’s wells still remain under the radar for many sections of her national church. The suspicious whiff of Popery or rural ignorance that hung about such waters was dealt with in the past by dismissing it as superstition, or by transforming wells into semi-medical spas as at Bath and Harrogate. Traces, where they remained, of a more spiritual aspect to the ‘cure’ were discouraged. It is typical of the Anglican Church’s desire to avoid extremes whenever possible, and of its dry urbanity when faced with enthusiasm. This distaste does not necessarily represent a lack of faith, but a discomfort with its public expression.1 Matters were different prior to the Reformation. Pilgrimages were a popular activity in medieval England, whether they took the traveller to Jerusalem or to Canterbury.

  • Oxford City Council Local Plan 2036
    Oxford City Council Local Sites Audit Plan 2036 BACKGROUND PAPER INTRODUCTION 1. This background paper forms part of the evidence base for the Oxford Local Plan 2036 and supplements the relevant background papers on Site Assessments that were published at the Issues stage of consultation in 2016 and the Preferred Options stage of consultation in 2017. For clarity, the 2016 and 2017 papers have not been reproduced here but this paper should be read alongside the previous papers. 2. The first part of the paper provides background information on the sites identified at Preferred Options Stage and provides information on how these were identified and the assessment process used to determine which sites would be taken forward for further investigation. 3. The second part sets out the differences between the list of sites accepted at Preferred Options stage and those taken forward into the Proposed Submission Plan. Within this section there is commentary on further reasons considered to help determine which sites should go forward and why sites were rejected at this stage. The section also includes commentary on additional sites that were added at this stage and the reasons for this. 4. The paper is supported by two Appendices. Appendix 1 is a list of Preferred Options rejected sites. This list has been updated with an additional column added to identify sites that were previously rejected but are now being accepted. The additional column contains commentary on why these sites are now being accepted and included within the Proposed Submission Plan. Appendix 2 is a list of the Preferred Options accepted sites.

  • Response to Boundary Commission's Draft Recommendations on the New
    Response to Boundary Commission’s Draft Recommendations on the new electoral arrangements for Oxford City Council (June 2018) Report prepared by Oxford East Green Party with the support of local residents 12th August 2018 FINAL VERSION 1 1. Introduction The Boundary Commission’s Draft Recommendations (June 2018) are, in almost all respects, the same as those presented to them by Oxford City Council’s Labour Group. There are only minor revisions reflecting some errors in the City’s initial calculations and some small changes suggested by the Boundary Commission. Oxford City Council has, very recently (7th August 2018 – going to the City’s Executive Board on 14th August 2018), suggested some minor refinements in response to these Draft Recommendations1 but has, perhaps not surprisingly given their provenance, largely accepted them. Unfortunately, the original proposals are – in the East of the City at least (St. Clement’s, Bartlemas and Donnington Wards) – not driven by the need to more accurately reflect community interests and identities or promote more effective and convenient local government. They were, as one Labour Councillor said to a Green Councillor in a cross-party review group; “designed to make sure you lot can’t get re-elected”. In this alternative arrangement of wards in East Oxford, we use evidence and examples to present our alternative to the Draft Recommendations for new wards we have provisionally named St. Clements, Bannister and Cricket Wards. This alternative arrangement maintains electoral equality whilst better: • Reflecting community boundaries and identities • Promoting more effective and convenient local government These proposals were accepted by Oxford City Council’s Electoral Services Manager, Martin John, as being a viable alternative arrangement of the three wards referred to in the Draft Recommendations as St.
