  • Local Priorities
    APPENDIX A Wendover Local Area Forum Local Priorities 2014 Wendover Local Area Forum (LAF) invited its Youth Forum to run its local priorities process which involved consulting with residents to see if the LAF should revise its local priorities. Residents in the local area parishes (Aston Clinton, Buckland, Drayton Beauchamp, Halton, Stoke Mandeville, Wendover and Weston Turville) were surveyed and invited to rank their priorities and provide comment on the reasons behind these rankings. The local priorities budget will be allocated to the top actionable local priorities, subject to agreement by the Wendover Parish Council provided a stand at Wendover LAF, so over the next two years work Market. Here the young people are joined by local MP, can be undertaken to take forward David Lidington. projects and schemes to address these priorities. Another aspiration of this project Doing this project has helped me to understand was to enable the Youth Forum to play the needs in the community. I met people that lived in my area that I didn’t know. The things a wider role in the LAF and also to take that we have worked on in the forum have made a lead in the local democratic process. a difference and we can see things starting to Wendover Local Area Forum is happen. Because of the Youth Forum, I got to represent also the first to devolve a budget to its young people across the area and share my Youth Forum to work on the priority: thoughts and ideas with BCC Youth Service, Activities and facilities for young which affects things for the future.

  • Peasants, Peers and Graziers: the Landscape of Quarrendon In
    PEASANTS, PEERS AND GRAZIERS: THE LANDSCAPE OF QUARRENDON, BUCKINGHAMSHIRE, INTERPRETED PAUL EVERSON The medieval and later earthworks at Quarrendon, surveyed by staff of the former Royal Commission on the Historical Monuments of England (now English Heritage), are described and interpreted. They reveal a sequence of major land-use phases that can be related coherently to topographical, documentary and architectural evidence. The earliest element may be the site of St Peter's church, located alongside a causeway. The evidence for its architectural development and decline is assem- bled. The site of a set of almshouses in the churchyard is identified. In the later medieval period, there were two separate foci of settlement, each similarly comprising a loose grouping of farmsteads around a green. It is argued that these form components of a form of dispersed settlement pattern in the parish and wider locality. Following conversion for sheep, depopulation and engrossment by the Lee family, merchant graziers of Warwick, a 16th-century moated country mansion was created, with accompanying formal gardens, warren and park. This was one of a group of residences in Buckinghamshire and north Oxfordshire of Sir Henry Lee, creator of the Accession Day tournaments for Elizabeth I and queen's champion. A tenanted farm, its farmhouse probably reusing a retained fragment of the earlier great house, replaced this house. The sites of agricultural cottages and oxpens of an early modern regime of grazing and cattle fattening are identified. In discussion, access and water supply to the great house, and the symbolism of the formal gardens, almshouses and warren are explored.

  • Buckinghamshire
    Buckinghamshire Later Bronze Age and Iron Age Historic Environment Resource Assessment Sandy Kidd June 2007 Nature of the evidence The Sites and Monuments Records for Buckinghamshire and Milton Keynes attributes 1622 records (monuments and find spots) to the Iron Age and a further 144 records to the Middle or Late Bronze Age representing about 9.4% of total SMR records. Also, many formally undated cropmark sites probably actually date to the Bronze Age or Iron Age. In addition evidence for the survival of putatively prehistoric landscapes into modern times needs to be considered (see landscape section). Later prehistoric sites have been recognised in Buckinghamshire since the 19 th century with useful summaries of the state of knowledge at the beginning of the twentieth century being provided by the Royal Commission for Historical Monuments and Victoria County History. Essentially knowledge was restricted to a few prominent earthwork monuments and a handful of distinctive finds, mostly from the Chilterns and Thames (Clinch, 1905; RCHME, 1912 & 1913). By 1955 Jack Head was able to identify a concentration of Iron Age hillforts, settlement sites and finds along the Chiltern scarp along with a few sites (mainly hillforts) on the dipslope and a scattering of sites along the Thames. A few of these sites, notably Bulstrode and Cholesbury Camps and an apparently open settlement on Lodge Hill, Saunderton had been investigated by trial trenching (Head, 1955, 62-78). By 1979 it was possible to draw upon a wider range of evidence including modern excavations, aerial photography and environmental archaeology referring to sites in the Ouse valley as well as the Chilterns, open settlements as well as hillforts and evidence for extensive open grassland environments from the Bronze Age onwards (Reed, 1979, 35-41).

  • Half a Million Years of Life in Bucks. Theresa Wren
    Human: Half a Million Years of Life in Bucks. Theresa Wren UCL Institute of Archaeology Since George Liscombe’s Victoria County History (1831-1847 and 1905-1927) subsequent comprehensive studies of Buckinghamshire County history have been scarce. The exhibition Human (6th March-11th July 2010) and its accompanying publication; An Illustrated History of Early Buckinghamshire, (Farley 2010), aim to resolve such a hiatus. Both book and exhibition chronicle the local archaeology, spanning over a century of fieldwork, and places local level archaeology within an epic narration of human history. Presenting local archaeology thus lends it with the wider relevance that will hopefully inspire increased patronage of local museums, presently about to be hardest hit by current economic policies. The exhibition is a collaborative achievement by the Buckinghamshire County Museum curatorial team. Both exhibition and book are divided into five time periods, threaded together by themes intrinsic to all human communities; living, dying, fighting, climate and food. Time is rendered dimensionally as well as visually by colour-coordinated plaques of varying thickness and a painted blue line running from reception to exhibition room indicating the Ice Age, all on a relative scale. Therefore, the timescale of human history is experienced physically and this works as an effective mnemonic device.
