  • The Baldons and Nuneham Courtenay Newsletter September 2016
    The Baldons and Nuneham Courtenay Newsletter Carfax Conduit, Nuneham Park – see inside for a rare opportunity to go on guided walks around the park and buildings! September 2016 FROM THE VICAR , REVD PAUL CAWTHORNE September is often a month full of delights. After our El Nino-affected climate over the winter and spring, we can wonder whether we will get a more normal autumn this year. Keats' season of mists and mellow fruitfulness feels such a lovely culmination of the yearly round, collecting apples, picking grapes from vines, basking in the sun's more gentle warmth, perhaps searching for mushrooms as they grow up through the moistening soil, I am sure we all have our favourite signs and activities of the season. It can be a time of relief for farmers as the vagaries of the weather seem less pressing once the grain is in the barn and the cattle are fat and full from summer grass, so there is a sense of moving to a less staccato pace again. For those of us who work less in contact with the soil, the rhythms are still there as we observe as much as partake. It has been intriguing this summer seeing friendly groups of teenagers out walking earnestly along the verges and round prominent buildings in our villages in a way which recalls the natural sociability and local exploration of previous years. If Pokémon Go has encouraged a new generation to look outwards more from the computer screen and game console, albeit through a phone screen, then that is presumably to be welcomed.

  • Compendium of World War Two Memories
    World War Two memories Short accounts of the wartime experiences of individual Radley residents and memories of life on the home front in the village Compiled by Christine Wootton Published on the Club website in 2020 to mark the 75th Anniversary of the end of World War Two Party to celebrate VJ Day in August 1946 Victory over Japan Day (VJ Day) was on 8 August 1945. It's likely the party shown in the photograph above was held in Lower Radley in a field next to the railway line opposite the old village hall. Club member Rita Ford remembers a party held there with the little ones in fancy dress, including Winston Churchill and wife, a soldier and a Spitfire. The photograph fits this description. It's possible the party was one of a series held after 1945 until well into the 1950s to celebrate VE Day and similar events, and so the date of 1946 handwritten on the photograph may indeed be correct. www.radleyhistoryclub.org.uk ABOUT THE PROJECT These accounts prepared by Club member and past chairman, Christine Wootton, have two main sources: • recordings from Radley History Club’s extensive oral history collection • material acquired by Christine during research on other topics. Below Christine explains how the project came about. Some years ago Radley resident, Bill Small, gave a talk at the Radley Retirement Group about his time as a prisoner of war. He was captured in May 1940 at Dunkirk and the 80th anniversary reminded me that I had a transcript of his talk. I felt that it would be good to share his experiences with the wider community and this set me off thinking that it would be useful to record, in an easily accessible form, the wartime experiences of more Radley people.

A dissertation presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English In the Department of English The University of Mississippi by THOMAS LANCE BULLINGTON May 2016 Copyright Thomas Lance Bullington 2016 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Exotic flora in the long eighteenth century (1666-1800) embodied a point of contact between the natural and imaginary worlds, bearing witness to the ways that ideology relocates living things according to human desire. Most accounts view these exotics through the lens of ecological imperialism and “invasive” species. Both of these terms are twenty-first century metaphors that materialize the role of imperialism in circulating exotics, applying the narrative of invading British empire to the behavior of foreign plants. However, such accounts do not fully acknowledge the cultural work that images of foreign plants do.

It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II* listed building, and is under the care of the Churches Conservation Trust. The church is southwest of the village, in the grounds of Nuneham House overlooking the River Thames, some 6 miles southeast of Oxford. This church is the second of three parish churches serving Nuneham Courtenay, each of which was dedicated to All Saints. The original church dated from the medieval period but was in a "ruinous state" by 1762. The medieval church was demolished by Simon Harcourt, 1st Earl Harcourt. The churchyard was destroyed and turned into a "pleasure ground" for the earl. This church was built in 1764.

  • Introduction
    A walk along the Mary/Michael Pilgrims Way – the Vale of White Horse and South Oxfordshire “It frequently happens that the preoccupation with thoughts about the aim of going, completely blots out the full consciousness of the act of going...” Nyanaponika Thera Introduction This is a path across the Vale of White Horse and South Oxfordshire, from Churn Knob in the Berkshire Downs to Pyrton at the foot of the Chilterns. The route reflects my personal experience of the area, recently shed in a new light by the Michael and Mary energy lines, as they weave across the county. The first section of the route follows the centuries old St Birinus pilgrimage, from Churn Knob to Dorchester on Thames. This pilgrim's way follows the energy flowing through the landscape, almost exactly along the Michael line. It is a path steeped in the ceremonial devotion of our forebears, retaining an atmosphere of sacred reverence as it charts a route across the ancient terrain. There is a sense of encountering the earth through the eyes of those who have walked before you, as you are taken from one strategic landmark to another, providing a series of vistas across the surrounding country. The environment seeps into your consciousness as you pass along your way. A major feature on this pilgrimage route is the crossing of The Sinodun Hills (Wittenham Clumps), where we find a node point of the Michael and Mary lines. This is the only such convergence in Oxfordshire, pointing, perhaps, to the status of the Clumps as Oxfordshire's favourite and most distinctive ancient site.
