Cover: Courtesy ofPunch. or rhe LondonCharivari. 18 August 1926. 301 MAGNA CARTA at BROUGHTON CASTLE Deborah Hayter We had a perfect evening on June 25th to celebratethe 800th anniversary of tl1e sealing of the Magna Carta. The sun shone. the c.astlc looked splendid and the gardens were at a peak of rose-filled perfection. Every ticket had been sold and people came and picnicked in the grounds and enjoyed the atmosphere. It was particularly apposite to be at Broughton for this. as Baron Saye was one oft.he barons who forced King John lo set his seal on the charter, and the Great Hall was a wonderful setting for such an occasion. Sir Bob Worcester. chairing the occasion, introduced the serious part of the proceedings and gave a short precis or the importance of Magna Carta in the following centuries. It was an extra bonus to have Anton Lesser with us. who had played Sir Thomas More in the recent BBC adaptation of WolfHall. some of which had been filmed at Brough1on. He read extracts from the Great Charter. and also finished the evening with a reading of Rudyard Kipling's Runnymede. In between Professor David Carpenter. of King's College London, gave a sparkling lecture aboul the making of the Greal Charter. which included some distinctly unacademic language ("King John was obviously a s0t'), making U! all laugh as well as making us think. Afterward Professor Carpenter signed copies of his books. some BHS books were sold. more wine was drunk and a cheerful time was had by all. TI1is event was arranged by Banbury Museum together with the Banbury Historical Society wilh help from the Magna Carta Trust. Many thanks are due to Simon Townsend and to Susan Walker forputting it all together, not forgetting Marlin Ficnnes who made it all possible by making the Castle available.

Intended simply to provide information on revenues due to the crown. Domesday provides an incomplete record of geographical area, land use and population. However. the speed of its productfon does illustrate the preceding Anglo-Saxon administration's well-established commLU1ications, legal and fiscal systems. According to Domesday. Hook Norton was a large and profitable entity, returning £30 in taxes in both I 066 and I 086. It might well not have c-overed the same area as today's civil parish. In the tenth century Hook Norton was a royal estate, a 'viii'. It is so named by John of Worcester in the Anglo Saxon Chronicle: After Easter [in 913] tlte pagan army from Northampton a11d Leicester p/u11dered ' DomesdayBook. Oxfordshire, Phillimore. Oxford. f. 28. 303 Oxfordshire, and killed many men in the royal viii Hook Norton and in many other places. John Blair i11 Oxoniensa points out that five parishes meet on the north eastern boundaiy of Hook Norton and postulates that a royal estate that included Hook Norton was broken up in the temh century.2 Further evidence of! look Norton's pre-Conquest impo11ance is the Anglo-Saxon stonework discovered in the church.

'John Blair. "Hook Norton, regia villa", Oxoniensia, Vol LJ, 1986. p.63. 3(),1 In 1086 the landowner who united d1e diree manors and was directly responsible to the crown was Robe,t d"Oilly, by then Sheriff of Warwickshire and Oxfordshire and keeper of Oxford Castle. Robe,t had fought at Hastings and accompanied Duke William 10 Wallingford 1 where - thanks to a Saxon kinsman of Edward the Confessor, Wigod - the invading army crossed the Thames on their way to take London. Robe,t was delegated to strengthen the castle at Wallingford and presumably that was when he married Wigod's daughter. Many of Wigod's lands passed to Robert and were then given 10 Robert's son-in-law. Miles Crispin, and his comrade in am1s, Roger d'lvry.4 In fact, 14 ofd1e 23 lands artribured to Wigod were held at least in part by d'Oilly, Crispin or d"Jvry in I 086 - but there is no evidence that the three brothers who held Hook Norton in I 066 were associated with Wigod. Be that as it may, HookNorton was the largest of Robert d'Oilly's manors, and the ea put of his barony. The Normans were ruthless in their enforcement of rank and duties. What would later be called the feudal system is oftenattributed LO them, but they built on systems already in place before the Conquest.

  • Cropredy Bridge by MISS M
    Cropredy Bridge By MISS M. R. TOYNBEE and J. J. LEEMING I IE bridge over the River Chenveff at Cropredy was rebuilt by the Oxford­ shire County Council in J937. The structure standing at that time was for T the most part comparatively modern, for the bridge, as will be explained later, has been thoroughly altered and reconstructed at least twice (in J780 and 1886) within the last 160 years. The historical associations of the bridge, especiaffy during the Civil War period, have rendered it famous, and an object of pilgrimage, and it seems there­ fore suitable, on the occasion of its reconstruction, to collect together such details as are known about its origin and history, and to add to them a short account of the Civil War battle of 1644, the historical occurrence for which the site is chiefly famous. The general history of the bridge, and the account of the battle, have been written by Miss Toynbee; the account of the 1937 reconstruction is by Mr. Leeming, who, as engineer on the staff of the Oxfordshire County Council, was in charge of the work. HISTORY OF TIlE BRIDGE' The first record of the existence of a bridge at Cropredy dates, so far as it has been possible to discover, from the year 1312. That there was a bridge in existence before 1312 appears to be pretty certain. Cropredy was a place of some importance in the :\1iddle Ages. It formed part of the possessions of the See of Lincoln, and is entered in Domesday Book as such. 'The Bishop of Lincoln holds Cropelie.

With the rise of rural house prices in recent years and the lack of available properties, local people are being forced to move away from their community in order to find housing they can afford. Daventry District has a growing population, to add to this the structure and size of households is also changing. When new households are formed or circumstances change, people may find their home unsuitable and it is therefore important that there is an adequate amount of housing to accommodate their needs. The provision of affordable housing is high on Daventry District Council’s agenda, as part of our vision to build a better district it is prioritised under the objective: “Healthy, Safe and Strong Communities and Individuals”. To this end the Council has been undertaking a rolling programme of affordable housing provision, which is based on robust evidence of housing need and local information – provided by Housing Needs Surveys. This report summarises the findings of the Housing Needs Survey in Canons Ashby, undertaken in October/November 2011. Strategic and Planning Context Daventry District Council has a number of policies and strategies to help deliver housing in both planning policy and housing strategy terms.
