Cllr Bird proposed, Cllr Cooke seconded the motion and the Council RESOLVED (unanimous by those in attendance) that the amended minutes were a true record. 50/19 10 Minute Open Forum. Residents addressed the council about the following issues: 1. Lack of footpath between the entrance of Heyford Leys and the East End of Camp Road: This area was considered to be dangerous for pedestrians as there is no footpath and it is almost impossible to walk along the verge. At least one mother with a child in a buggy has been seen walking along this dangerous stretch of road as she had no other option. Concerns were raised that pedestrians could slip and fall in front of one of the numerous lorries that use this road. 2. Mismatch of path along the 200 yards stretch of road to the entrance to the woods: Residents noted that there was usually a long line of cars parked by the burger van blocking sight lines and you then had to cross a very dangerous stretch of road in order to get to the entrance of the woods.

  • Banbury and Bicester College
    Sharing Innovative Approaches to Delivering 16-19 Study Programme Principles Banbury and Bicester College Enterprise and Employability “At the heart of our model for Study Programmes is the development of employability skills through the learning company concept.” Rose Turner, Principal Banbury and Bicester College is part of Activate Learning1, a group which combines secondary, further and higher education along with workforce training, commercial business and social enterprise. The Activate Learning group was formed in September 2013, following the merger of Oxford and Cherwell Valley College, and Reading College in 2010. The group comprises Banbury and Bicester College, City of Oxford College, Reading College and Activate Enterprise. Activate Learning has a chief executive officer; each college has a principal and Activate Enterprise a director. In 2012/13 the three colleges recruited around 14,500 learners, two thirds of whom were adults on part-time courses. Most learners, currently, are on foundation and intermediate programmes and the group have around 1,800 apprentices in five subject areas. Oxfordshire and Berkshire are affluent counties with rates of unemployment below national averages. However, across both counties, there are areas of educational and social deprivation and the profile of learners attending the colleges reflects this. GCSE attainment in local secondary schools is broadly at, or just below, national averages, and many learners come to study and train at the colleges with attainment below national averages. The proportion of the population of Oxfordshire and Berkshire from minority ethnic backgrounds varies from around 25% in Reading to below 5% in Banbury and Bicester. However, the proportion of learners from minority ethnic backgrounds in the colleges matches or exceeds these local proportions.

  • Observations at Somerton, Oxon., 1973
    Observations at Somerton, Oxon., 1973 By R. A. CHAMBERS SUMMARy During the autumn of I9 73 a watching briif was kept over a series ofpipe trenches dug for the installation of main drainage in and around the shrunken medieval village of Somerton, Oxon. (SP497287).' Continuous observation of the open trench sections provided material from the medieval village' and also enabled a reappraisal of the cemetery at Castle Yard (SP496288).' THE VILLAGE HIS report is concerned with the archaeological information from pipe trenches. T The historical and topographical background has been included to provide a context for the features encountered and is not a comprehensive account of the whole village,' which was one of the largest and richest in Ploughley Hundred during the Middle Ages. Since the medieval period the village has shrunk, leaving the present nucleated settlement with the Norman parish church on its southerr. edge (FIG. I). The deserted areas which surround the present village are for the most part under pasture with earthworks clearly visible (PL. Xl, A). On the west side of the village, Church Street forms a ' T ' junction with a hollow way shown by Davis' map to have been disused and under pasture by 1797.' Northwards the way ends by the assumed castle fishponds. Some 100 m. south-west of Church Street the h~llow way con­ tinues westwards and forms the boundary between some less pronounced village earthworks to the north and the edge of the open field to the south (PL. Xl, A)." The western limit of the open field and a further length of the hollow way lie buried by the mid nineteenth-century railway embankment.

  • Clifton Past and Present
    Clifton Past and Present L.E. Gardner, 1955 Clifton, as its name would imply, stands on the side of a hill – ‘tun’ or ‘ton’ being an old Saxon word denoting an enclosure. In the days before the Norman Conquest, mills were grinding corn for daily bread and Clifton Mill was no exception. Although there is no actual mention by name in the Domesday Survey, Bishop Odo is listed as holding, among other hides and meadows and ploughs, ‘Three Mills of forty one shillings and one hundred ells, in Dadintone’. (According to the Rev. Marshall, an ‘ell’ is a measure of water.) It is quite safe to assume that Clifton Mill was one of these, for the Rev. Marshall, who studied the particulars carefully, writes, ‘The admeasurement assigned for Dadintone (in the survey) comprised, as it would seem, the entire area of the parish, including the two outlying townships’. The earliest mention of the village is in 1271 when Philip Basset, Baron of Wycomb, who died in 1271, gave to the ‘Prior and Convent of St Edbury at Bicester, lands he had of the gift of Roger de Stampford in Cliftone, Heentone and Dadyngtone in Oxfordshire’. Another mention of Clifton is in 1329. On April 12th 1329, King Edward III granted a ‘Charter in behalf of Henry, Bishop of Lincoln and his successors, that they shall have free warren in all their demesne, lands of Bannebury, Cropperze, etc. etc. and Clyfton’. In 1424 the Prior and Bursar of the Convent of Burchester (Bicester) acknowledged the receipt of thirty-seven pounds eight shillings ‘for rent in Dadington, Clyfton and Hampton’.

I DEDICATE THIS BOOK TO FAITH AND JACK AND MY NLECES AND NEPHEWS. n FOREWORD. 3T was suggested to me by my cousin, Alfred Ransford of Hunstanton, that being a native of Stratford-on-Avon, baptized there in the historic Church of Holy Trinity (Register Certificate No. 70;\ Page 89), and the grand-daughter of a Rainsford of the Clifford Chambers line, I should compile into a little book some of his genealogical notes relating to the family, which he has collected over a period of thirty years, in­ spired and assisted by a kinsman, the late Frederick Vine Rainsford, who began turning over Wills and docu-· ments at the age of eighteen, and devoted a great part of sixty years to research work. This volume is a brief outline of a typical English family, living in the beautiful homes of our Empire, yet facing the vicissitudes oflife, with its struggles and successes; amidst the hardships and dra\vbacks of a much less advanced civilization ; who, like numerous others, in response to the call of King and Country, have been leaders of men, in the Church and Services, in the legal and

APPLICATION SITE AND LOCALITY 1.1. The application site lies at the western extent of the village of Finmere. An old section of the Banbury Road, which has limited vehicle access, runs to the south of the site. Further to the south of the site is the A421 and then open countryside. The north edge of the site lies adjacent to existing residential properties including 1 Top Gardens and Flower Patch, whilst the north west of the site lies adjacent to Heatherstone Lodge. The garden of Westbury End runs along the northern part of the eastern boundary of the site. To the south east and south west of the site is open countryside. 1.2. The site slopes from approximately 121m AOD adjacent to the southern boundary to approximately 116m AOD to the north. Therefore the land rises slightly from the main part of the village to the north. The site also falls away to the west and north west. It is approximately 1.4 hectares, comprises agricultural grass land, which currently appears to be used for grazing. There are no buildings or structures on the site. There is a pond on the western boundary of the site. There are a number of public footpaths which cross the site including 213/10/10, 213/10/20, 213/1/30 and 213/1/40.
