  • Charles Oxenden
    http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society CHARLES OXENDEN Cricketer, Cleric and Medical Pioneer PHILIP H. BLAKE St. Patrick's Day, 1979, was the 105th anniversary of the death of the Rev. Charles Oxenden, Hon. Canon of Canterbury and first rector of the separate living of Barham, near Canterbury — and the fact will mean practically nothing to most people. Yet, a great national institution, the Eton v. Harrow cricket match, played annually at Lord's for over 150 years, was his foundation, and as a pioneer in the administration of health services for the poor he was advocating to a Parliamentary Committee 125 years ago that free medical attention should be provided on a national basis to every- one below a certain income. At that time, also, he was managing a medical provident society of over 2,000 members that he himself had founded 20 years previously. But past is all his fame. The very spot, Where many a time he triumph'd, is forgot. It is the object of this paper to recall some of the details of this useful life. Charles Oxenden was the fourth son of Sir Henry Oxenden, 7th baronet, of Broome House in Barham, where he was born on 23rd May, 1800, baptized privately three days later and was received into the Church at Barham on 25th July following. He went to school first at Eton, but was later transferred to Harrow. Although there is now no record of the exact dates of his entering and leaving either school, he certainly entered Eton in 1814 after Election, i.e., after late July, when candidates were chosen King's Scholars, and probably, therefore, at the beginning of the autumn term.

  • Charlton Park History Pamphlet Revised 2017 12 10 2015. Word[2]
    CHARLTON PARK BISHOPSBOURNE HISTORY OF THE LAND, THE HOUSE AND THE PEOPLE Jack Wales 2016 1 Bishopsbourne is a peaceful, out-of-the-way place, where nothing much happens for decades at a time. The ancient Charlton estate that forms the eastern part of the parish is even more obscure. Occasionally, some things of interest - or some people of interest - turn up unexpectedly. 1. Caesar's Battle with the Britons 54 BC On his second invasion of 54 BC, Caesar landed ( as in 55 BC ) at Deal, having decided that Dover harbour, which was further up the Dour estuary than now , was too well defended. After a night march of 12 Roman miles ( 11 statute miles ) he was attacked by the Britons from higher ground to the north-east of Bridge on the morning of 8th July. They used their chariots and cavalry effectively, but were easily defeated by superior Roman infantry and cavalry. Caesar writes clearly ( if briefly ) of this encounter in “The Conquest of Gaul”. He says the Britons advanced to a river ( he uses the word “flumen” which means any watercourse; it does not imply the English distinction between “river” and “stream” ) - clearly the Little Stour - and then attacked him from higher ground. This is an obvious tactic for them, as it would give scope for deploying their chariots. Barham down was relatively open ground at that time; pollen evidence shows that much of the woodland on the Downs between Bridge and Wingham had been cleared during the Bronze Age. After defeating them, Caesar conducted mopping-up operations as they hid in the woods at a well-defended point ( possibly in the vicinity of Old England's Hole on Bridge Hill, or an unidentified location ).

MINUTES OF THE MEETING HELD ON 19 JANUARY 2016 The Minutes were accepted as a true record of the meeting. 4. INFORMATION FROM MATTERS ARISING 4(6.iv) Cllr Bradford reported that Roger Bodimeade has repaired the sign since the last meeting but Kent County Council has not actioned its replacement yet. 5. The Clerk contacted County Cllr Michael Northey to request more information on the proposed mobile library changes and Cllr Northey confirmed that both the Wickhambreaux and Ickham stops are to be retained under the proposals. However, the mobile library is proposed to change from a weekly stop to fortnightly and is proposed to change from Monday 14:40-15:25 (45 minutes) to Thursday 10:45-11:15 (30 minutes). The Clerk was asked to make an official representation on behalf of the Parish Council commenting that Thursday would clash with the refuse and recycling collections so another day may be better to consider and also that the change in time now means school children cannot attend the library after school like they do currently.

The main field was also surveyed topographically with a Leica 1200 series GPS with smartnet. The survey was undertaken with the aim of revealing a greater extent of the features discovered through aerial photographic evidence as well as to extend the geomagnetic survey begun in 2011. The area included the remaining extent of the eastern half of the field previously surveyed in 2011 up to the field boundaries and the Nailbourne Stream. Large-scale archaeological features and limited geological features were re- vealed. Walls of possible Roman buildings show with some clarity as negative linear anomalies.
