Question 1: What Do You Think About the Vision That CHART OF THE MONTH November 2015 Rural Oxfordshire still ranked relatively poorly on geographical barriers to services According to the latest Indices of Deprivation, on the measure of geographical barriers to services (a sub domain of the overall index), 85 of the 407 lower super output areas* in Oxfordshire are ranked in the 10% most deprived areas in England. The geographical barriers to services sub domain includes road distance to GP surgery, post office, primary school and supermarket / convenience store. In those areas which are in rural Oxfordshire (on the ONS rural/urban classification), almost half (46%) of lower super output areas are ranked in the 10% most deprived on barriers to services.

Source: Indices of Deprivation 2015, Department for Communities and Local Government *Lower Layer Super Output areas are used for the reporting of small area statistics and include an average of 1,500 residents IMD Geographical Barriers to Services sub-domain 2015 The number (and proportion) of areas in the most deprived 10% in Oxfordshire on geographical barriers to services is slightly above the previous (2010) Indices of Deprivation. This means that, relative to other areas in England, the position in Oxfordshire appears to have worsened. The district showing the greatest difference is Vale of White Horse which has gone from 16 areas in the worst 10% in 2010 to 23 areas in that category in 2015. Further work is needed to understand the cause of this change in ranking.

The Barriers to Housing and Services Domain measures the physical and financial accessibility of housing and local services. The indicators fall into two sub-domains: ‘geographical barriers’, which relate to the physical proximity of local services, and ‘wider barriers’ which includes issues relating to access to housing such as affordability. This publication reports on the geographical barriers sub domain only.

    REPORT FOR: Councillor Felix Bloomfield CABINET MEMBER FOR PLANNING DEVELOPMENT MANAGEMENT (DM) REPORT FOR April 2018 1. CORPORATE Oxfordshire Housing and Growth Deal The terms of reference and Statement of Common Ground are being considered by a meeting of the joint scrutiny committee on 17 April. The production of the Statement of Common Ground was supported by involvement from the Planning Advisory Service and will be regularly updated through the duration of the JSSP. The Growth Deal team are talking to MHCLG about the practicalities and operation of a reduced housing delivery test alongside a 3 year housing land supply. More detail will emerge, but it is likely that this will need to be subject to local consultation prior to the publication of the final NPPF. Joint Statutory Spatial Plan (JSSP) for Oxfordshire (statutory) As part of the Housing and Growth Deal officers are starting to progress some background to the joint statutory spatial plan. An interim lead for the JSSP has been appointed – Rachel Williams will be taking on the project and is expected to take up this post in the next fortnight. 2. DEVELOPMENT MANAGEMENT Registration Number of applications is 111 (currently working to 3 day turnaround) Average number of applications received throughout March was 30.5 per day (up on January and February figures and in April an average of 34 per day is expected. There have been issues with staffing levels across the Registration/ Business Support – as a result of vacancies and sickness – we are trying to address this by amending working patterns and recruitment. 5YHLS update Our current Five Year Housing Land Supply (5YHLS) position was published in May 2017 and demonstrates that we have supply of 4.1 years.

    East Hagbourne Parish Council Minutes of the Parish Council meeting duly convened and held on Thursday 2nd November 2017 1) Attendance, apologies, declarations of pecuniary interest and vacancies. Present were Chairman D. Rickeard, Vice Chair, I. Duff, C. Gover, D. Button, S. Beynon, J. Elliott In attendance A. Leigh (Clerk), members of the public D. Rickeard reported that Crispin Topping has resigned form the Parish Council, but will continue to serve as Chairman of the Neighbourhood Plan (NP) Steering Group. 2) Public Forum and Questions. Members of the public were in attendance to present the views of the Save St Hugh’s Rise campaign against planning application P17/S3798/O They oppose the development due to the following grounds: 1) Access to a development of this size (85+ houses) which they consider inadequate, as access is solely through St Hugh’s Rise, a cul de sac off St Hilda's Close, which itself is a branch off the Fleet Meadow loop road, called Sandringham Rd. St Hugh’s is a small cul-de-sac that contains 65 houses, resulting in many cars parking on the road itself. Additionally, St Hugh’s has narrowed pinch points, further restricting traffic flow. The proposed development could see an additional 150+ cars attempting to use this already over utilised access road. Construction traffic will be accessing the development through narrow residential roads and will be noisy, dangerous and inconvenient to residents. How would emergency services cope in the case of an emergency arising? St Hilda's Close and its tributary streets contains 105 + houses, all of which will have the same main access point back to Sandringham road.

  • Early Medieval Oxfordshire
    Anglo-Saxon Oxfordshire Sally Crawford and Anne Dodd, December 2007 1. Introduction: nature of the evidence, history of research and the role of material culture Anglo-Saxon Oxfordshire has been extremely well served by archaeological research, not least because of coincidence of Oxfordshire’s diverse underlying geology and the presence of the University of Oxford. Successive generations of geologists at Oxford studied and analysed the landscape of Oxfordshire, and in so doing, laid the foundations for the new discipline of archaeology. As early as 1677, geologist Robert Plot had published his The Natural History of Oxfordshire ; William Smith (1769- 1839), who was born in Churchill, Oxfordshire, determined the law of superposition of strata, and in so doing formulated the principles of stratigraphy used by archaeologists and geologists alike; and William Buckland (1784-1856) conducted experimental archaeology on mammoth bones, and recognised the first human prehistoric skeleton. Antiquarian interest in Oxfordshire lead to a number of significant discoveries: John Akerman and Stephen Stone's researches in the gravels at Standlake recorded Anglo-Saxon graves, and Stone also recognised and plotted cropmarks in his local area from the back of his horse (Akerman and Stone 1858; Stone 1859; Brown 1973). Although Oxford did not have an undergraduate degree in Archaeology until the 1990s, the Oxford University Archaeological Society, originally the Oxford University Brass Rubbing Society, was founded in the 1890s, and was responsible for a large number of small but significant excavations in and around Oxfordshire as well as providing a training ground for many British archaeologists. Pioneering work in aerial photography was carried out on the Oxfordshire gravels by Major Allen in the 1930s, and Edwin Thurlow Leeds, based at the Ashmolean Museum, carried out excavations at Sutton Courtenay, identifying Anglo-Saxon settlement in the 1920s, and at Abingdon, identifying a major early Anglo-Saxon cemetery (Leeds 1923, 1927, 1947; Leeds 1936).

    saturday 8 - monday 31 may 2010 free guide www.artweeks.org Sponsored by Welcome to Artweeks 2010 2010 is set to be the biggest Artweeks ever with 474 sites exhibiting during the Festival. Artweeks plays a vital role in bringing artists and art enthusiasts and buyers together across the county. Our goal this year is to bring new audiences to the work of Oxfordshire's creative community, those who might find the idea of going to a gallery daunting. By visiting an open studio and talking to the artist you get to understand the creative process, the way they have tried to convey their ideas and the effect they have created. Most of the works on view are for sale and you'll find some originals at prices that you might pay for a mass-produced copy in a quality department store. Artweeks is all about involvement and originality; by simply going along to a couple of studios and seeing what is on offer, you too add to the vibrancy of Oxfordshire's biggest arts festival.

Great Rollright is a secluded rural parish adjoining the Warwickshire border, c.2¾ miles north of Chipping Norton and the same south-west of Hook Norton.1 The village, comprising several distinct ‘ends’ now partly linked by modern infill, developed on a south-facing slope close to an ancient ridgeway from Stow-on-the Wold (Glos.) to Banbury. Little outlying settlement existed until enclosure in 1776, which prompted the building of a few isolated farmhouses, while more recent development increased the overall number of dwellings from 80-odd in the 1930s to over 200 in 2011. The economy was predominantly agricultural until the 20th century, benefiting briefly from the Cheltenham to Banbury railway (1887–1962), and in the 19th century the presence of a large body of poorly paid farm workers probably contributed to increased Nonconformity. Significant landowners included Brasenose College, Oxford (also church patron), and the resident Sheppards (1583–1742). The prefix ‘Great’, 1 This account was written in 2019–20 and revised in 2021.

  • Choose Chipping Norton
    Choose Chipping Norton Chipping Norton is a bustling Cotswold market town and ‘Gateway to the Cotswolds’; it’s a fantastic place to visit and a market is held there every Wednesday and a Farmers’ Market on the third Saturday of each month. The town has some great shopping and a good choice of places to eat and drink. There is a town guide and a town trail available to download that take in some of the highlights in and around Chipping Norton, as well as a number of walks into the surrounding countryside. Within the town itself don’t miss the Grade I listed Church of St Mary the Virgin and the Owen Mumford Gallery within the Theatre Chipping Norton. The gallery, which has free admission, is open on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 11am-3pm. From Wednesday 26 March to Wednesday 16 April, the gallery is showing drawings and sketchings by the theatre’s artist-in-residence, Chris Forthergill. The Rollright Stones near Chipping Norton Just 2.5 miles from Chipping Norton lie the mysterious Rollright Stones: a prehistoric standing stone circle. Legend tells us that a king and his army were marching over the Cotswolds when they met a witch, who addressed the king... "Seven long strides thou shalt take, and If Long Compton thou canst see King of England shalt thou be" The king strode forward confidently but on his seventh stride the ground rose obscuring his view of the village below. The witch then turned the men to stone, the king overlooking Long Compton, his men standing in a circle nearby, and his five knights whispering treachery a little further off.
