    ID CAPACITY TOWN ROAD VIEW COMMENTS As a cycle‐user I frequently use Walton Street both as a destination in its own right and also as a through‐route to and from the rail and coach stations, and West Oxford. The conditions for those who cycle have been immeasurably better since the junction was closed to motor traffic but still open to cycles and those on foot. The simplification of the junction makes a very big difference. Charlbury 9628641 individual Oxford Support That said, the remaining pedestrian crossing at Worcester Street North is now on the wrong alignment to Road facilitate southbound cycle‐users crossing the northbound vehicular flow as it turns into Beaumont Street. This needs urgent solution, now that traffic is rising again post‐COVID. Only when the Traffic Control Point proposed in Connecting Oxford is installed in Worcester Street, operating 24/7 year‐long, should the Walton Street junction be reopened to motor vehicles It is essential to reduce motorised transport both to reduce carbon emissions and to reduce the air pollution caused by motor vehicles. All vehicles cause pollution, including electric vehicles, which require CO2 emissions at power stations and generate particulates from road, brake and tyre wear. Eynsham 9642049 individual Oxford Support The experimental closure of Walton Street is one small step towards creating a safer, healthier and more Road civilised environment for walking and cycling, and reducing vehicle traffic. It should be extended indefinitely, and should be only the first step in a comprehensive suite of measures to eliminate private cars from the city, with the exception of those required by people with physical disabilities that prevent them from using foot, bicycle or public transport.

  • Eagle Ironworks, Walton Well Road, Jericho, Oxford
    Eagle Ironworks, Walton Well Road, Jericho, Oxford An Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment for Berkeley Homes (Oxford and Chiltern) Ltd by Steve Preston Thames Valley Archaeological Services Ltd Site Code EIO05/26 November 2006 Summary Site name: Eagle Ironworks, Walton Well Road, Jericho Oxford Grid reference: SP 5045 0723 Site activity: Desk-based assessment Project manager: Steve Ford Site supervisor: Steve Preston Site code: EIO05/26 Area of site: c. 1 ha Summary of results: This desktop study is a revised version of a report prepared in April 2005. It has been prepared to address the unique planning condition required for a modification of the original planning consent for the site which requires an increased land take for a proposed bin store. The site is in a location which can be considered to have moderate to high archaeological potential. Although much of the site had been truncated to level it for the ironworks buildings, substantial parts of it have been levelled up rather than down, which may have preserved intact any archaeology below the modern surface level. Preservation of palaeoenvironmental evidence may be enhanced by the damp setting, although possible contamination of the groundwater may counteract this. Evaluation for the main part of the site failed to reveal any deposits of archaeological interest but with peaty and alluvial deposits present in the deepest trenches as anticipated. Two hand dug trenches in the location of the new bin store which lies beyond the original site boundary located modern disturbance and a deposit of 17th century or later date with residual medieval finds.

  • Industrial Architecture in Oxford, 1870 to 1914
    Industrial Architecture in Oxford, 1870 to 1914 Liz Woolley SUMMARY In the late Victorian and Edwardian periods rapid increases in population, rises in real wages, and the advent of the mass media fuelled a growing demand for manufactured goods and for clean water and power. The industrial expansion which resulted changed the face of many of Britain’s towns and cities. In Oxford, a city rarely thought of as ‘industrial’ in this period, there were in fact a number of interesting examples of industrial buildings. This study uses physical and archival evidence to examine architecture associated with Oxford’s public utilities, breweries, Lucy’s iron foundry, several factories and warehouses, and Morris’s motor garage. he British Empire achieved its greatest commercial and manufacturing might in the late TVictorian period.1 The horsepower of British industry increased from two million in 1870 to ten million in 1907, and a higher proportion of the labour force was engaged in manufacture in 1901 than at any earlier or later date.2 Rapid population growth, increases in real wages, and the development of mass media stimulated demand for manufactured goods, clean water, and power: the amount of gas sold increased threefold between 1882 and 1912 and the number of gas companies almost doubled to 826.3 The generation and supply of electricity, meanwhile, grew from obscure and makeshift beginnings into a major industry and an important foundation for modern society and civilisation.4 Such industrial expansion not only had profound economic, political, and social effects, but also changed the appearance and physical layout of many of Britain’s towns and cities.
