Four Villages Diamond Jubilee Celebration Thanks to all the villagers who came together at Finstock Playing Fields on Sunday June 3rd to celebrate the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee. The children started the event with a party and painted some wonderful Jubilee themed tiles. We have some budding artists amongst our children! It was lovely to see so many people join together for the community picnic despite the rain falling heavily. Having the time to sit and enjoy the company of good friends and neighbours in our busy lives made the picnic very special. We were wonderfully entertained by Mike Breakell playing his accordion. Ags Connolly started the evening entertainment with a great set and the band Free for All had us all dancing until Ags entertains at Jubilee midnight – starting with the National Anthem and ending with the National Anthem! Due to excellent bar sales, we were able to cover the costs of the event, and we have a small sum left over to contribute towards the children’s commemorative mugs (more details below).

  • Excavations at Callow Hill, Glympton and Stonesfield, Oxon
    Excavations at Callow H ill, Glympton and Stonesfield, Oxon. By NICHOLAS THOMAS INTRODUCTION HE excavations described in this report were carried out by the Oxford University Archaeological Society in order to throw new light on the problemsT posed by the group of Roman villas that lies in the area defined by the north Oxfordshire Grim's Dyke. It was agreed that this could best be done by investigating the ditch which enclosed one of these villas-Callow Hill, 3! miles NW of Woodstock ( ational Grid: 42/40919s)-and the prominent earthworks immediately to the east of it. These earthworks appeared to have much in common with Grim's Dyke itself, which runs through Blenheim Park about one mile farther towards Woodstock. It was hoped that it would be possible to deduce some relationship, either chrono­ logical or political, between the villa at Callow Hill-and hence, to some extent, between the other villas hereabouts-and Grim's Dyke. The work was carried out during the first three weeks of September, 1950, under my direction, assisted by Mr. Alan Hunter.' No previous research had been undertaken at Callow Hill. The site has long been known because of the amount of Romano-British building debris and potsherds which lie about on the surface. In 1916 a floor was found, l The excavations were made possible by a grant of £30 from the Research Fund of the Oxford University Archaeological Society. Sincere thanks arc due to His Grace the Duke of Marlborough, Col. Sir Charles Ponsonby 8t., Mr. and Mrs. E. Tomkins, and Mr.
