This has proved both uncomfortable and costly for all concerned in the longer term. 4 .

It is hoped to publish two articles­ one on a town house and one on a country houst-in each number if Oxoniensia. -Editor. I. FISHER ROW, OXFORD By W. A. PAN"IlN FISHER Row consisted of a row of cottages which stood on a long narrow bank or strip of land running from Hythe Bridge on the north to QUaking Bridge and Castle Millon the south; this bank was bounded on the east by the main stream or mill stream and on the west by a back stream, and its purpose was no doubt to divert the stream to feed the Castle Mill at the southern end; it was at first known by the medieval Latin name of wara (meaning a weir or defence), hence the later name '\Tarham Bank. About half-way down the bank is divided into two halves, north and south, by a sluice which is a short distance south of the modern bridge joining the ew Road to Park End Street.' The tenements south of this sluice were acquired by Oseney Abbey at various dates between about 1240 and 1469; after the Dissolution these passed to Christ Church who also acquired the tenements north of the sluice. The Oseney rentals from c. 1277 show that the tenants included such people as fishermen, carpenters and tanners; similarly the Christ Church leases from c.

  • Oxford Walk & Talk
    Oxford Walk & Talk Duration: 60-75 “River & Stream” mins Updated by Ros Weatherall & Liz Storrar, February 2013 Oxford was defined by its water courses long before the arrival of its University. This leisurely walk will take you along the Mill Stream Walk, following the stream which powered the city’s mill, returning alongside the modern navigable River Thames. The walk 1. From Bonn Square walk to your right, 50 metres towards New Road. Cross the road at the zebra crossing and walk downhill along Castle Street, with County Hall to your right. 2. Turn right at the Castle Tavern into Paradise Street, and follow it past Paradise Square to your left. Cross the bridge over the stream (the Castle Mill Stream) – see the Norman tower of the Castle to your right - turn immediately left (marked Woodin’s Way) and double back on yourself to walk along the Millstream Path with the stream on your left (passing the Europe Business Assembly building to your right). 3. Walk beside the stream and after crossing it turn right to continue on the path – the stream is now to your right, and housing to your left. Where the housing ends turn left and immediately right to pass through a passage beside the housing signed as 1-14 Abbey Place. This leads you to a car park adjoining what is now a building site, where construction of the extended Westgate Centre will begin at some point in the future. 4. Walk ahead across the car park (with a hoarding to your right) to the main road (Thames Street/Oxpens Road).

At a time when Oxford needed to expand out of its historic core centred around the castle, the medieval streets and the major colleges, these two factors enabled the area to be laid out as a planned suburb as lands associated with medieval manors were made available. This gives the whole area homogeneity as a residential suburb.

  • The Golden Compass
    Inspector Morse in Oxfordshire Oxford has long been home to Morse author Colin Dexter and famously became the backdrop to his popular murder mystery novels. It is not surprising that when ITV came to shoot the 33 Morse films, Oxford and the surrounding county consistently made it on to the screen. Inspector Morse is best known for an appreciation of beer, Wagner compositions, crossword puzzles, and zipping around his beloved city of dreaming spires in a red Jaguar car, usually accompanied by his long- suffering sidekick Sergeant Lewis played by actor Kevin Whateley. Enjoy a taste of Oxfordshire as you wind your way around some unmistakeable county locations in pursuit of mystery, Morse and murder! 1. Sheep Street 33, Burford The picturesque medieval town of Burford (known as the “Gateway to the Cotswolds”) features in The Remorseful Day where John Barron falls to his death from a ladder. He is pushed by a hooded culprit while painting Mrs Bayley’s house. 2/3.Blenheim Palace & Combe sawmill gate. Set in 2100 acres of beautiful parkland the unique English Baroque architecture of Blenheim Palace is on view in The Way through the Woods. Morse drives up to Blenheim to investigate after George Daley’s body is discovered inside the Combe sawmill gate, to the west of the estate. Morse returns to Blenheim to interview a worker on the grounds. (Blenheim Palace & Gardens, Woodstock. Open: 10:30 - 5:30 daily Tel: 01993 810500. Combe sawmill gate: Park Road to East End in Combe, Woodstock) 4. Oxford Canal, Thrupp basin (Banbury Rd. North of Kidlington) In the opening scene of The Last Enemy a decapitated body is found in the canal, along Thrupp just north of Kidlington.

  • Frideswide Square Is One of Oxford's Highest Profile
    Frideswide Square Frequently Asked Questions Why are you doing this work? Frideswide Square is one of Oxford’s highest profile public areas and is a vital link between major road routes into the city. Tens of thousands of car, bus, cycle and pedestrians pass through each day and the area is also the destination for thousands of rail passengers. The county council is tackling what has been seen as a perennial problem for travellers coming into the city – our work will see improved journey times, far better facilities for pedestrians and cyclists and be part of a modern gateway for Oxford. We are investing in a better system for traffic and creating some excellent public space that is in keeping with nearby facilities such as the business school and future developments such as the revamped train station. The finished Fridewide Square will reflect the regeneration taking place in and around Oxford and the county as a whole. How much are you spending on this? £5.5million. This is a major investment into Oxford and just one of the pieces of work being done to ensure the city has the transport infrastructure to match its ambition to be a world class city. What does the work involve? There are two stages to the implementation of the project. The first stage of works, recently completed, involved reallocating parking from Becket Street to Osney Lane and St Thomas Street. There were also minor adjustments to the road layout at the junctions of Becket Street/Botley Road, Becket Street Osney Lane and Osney Lane/Hollybush Row.

The property is exquisitely styled like a country house in a simplified William and Mary character, with interior features of the Arts and Crafts/Art Nouveau elegance, which include tiles in the drawing room and cast-iron grates on the upper floors. Arranged over three floors with many period features throughout, the accommodation (4,271 sq ft) provides a superb family home with a lateral layout which will appeal to many families. There are spacious and elegant reception rooms to the ground floor, with eight bedrooms and three bathrooms arranged over the first and second floors accessed via two separate staircases. The property has remained within the same family since the 1960’s and would now benefit from some updating.
