Wallingford Oxfordshire WALLINGFORD l OXFORDSHIRE A select development of 2, 3, 4 and 5 bedroom homes including apartments WELCOME TO CROWMARSH GIFFORD King Stephen’s Place is located in the village of Crowmarsh Gifford, next to the market town of Wallingford on the banks of the River Thames in Oxfordshire; the two are connected by Wallingford Bridge adjacent to our development. The whole area is full of history, with buildings and churches dating back as far as the 12th Century. During the civil war in 1139, the first of a series of wooden forts were built by King Stephen in Crowmarsh, in opposition to Wallingford Castle which supported his cousin Matilda. These were dismantled under the terms of the Treaty of Wallingford of 1153, but were the inspiration for our development name. The local church of St Mary Magdalene was also used as a fortified post by King Stephen and it was used by Cromwell's men to shelter from the Royalists (with cannon ball holes in the vestry door to prove it!). Nearby Wallingford Castle was built by William the Conqueror and was ordered to be demolished by Oliver Cromwell in 1652 and the remains can be seen from the Castle Gardens. In the village itself there are two public houses whilst the village hall plays host to dozens of classes and events including keep fit, Zumba, children’s parties, music clubs and art classes. There is a local primary school and two nursery schools just a few minutes’ walk from King Stephen’s Place, and Wallingford Secondary School is a short drive across the bridge. Crowmarsh Gifford is a peaceful village; bypassed by the A4074 Reading to Oxford road and the A4130, though the M40 is only ten miles away. Cholsey station, just ten minutes drive away, offers services to Reading and Oxford in around 20 minutes, and direct to London Paddington in under 90 minutes. A little further out, Didcot Parkway Station is just 45 minutes from London Paddington. There is plenty to see and do in Wallingford, quaint antique shops nestle alongside pubs, bistros and restaurants to suit all tastes. In the centre of town there is a large Waitrose as well as several independent shops and boutiques. The Corn Exchange houses a cinema and theatre, and ten minutes drive away the Springs Hotel and Golf Club offers an excellent championship golf course, croquet lawn, coarse fishing on the banks of the Thames, a sauna, a beauty salon and a guitar shaped outdoor pool. The traditional farmer’s market is held in Market Place and Feather’s Yard every month, and the annual Pooh Sticks Championships is held at Days Lock with a Blues and Beer Festival held each June.

  • THE PARISH of BERRICK SALOME Minutes of the Annual Parish Meeting Held on 22Nd May 2006 at the Berrick Salome Village Hall at 8.00 P.M
    Signed …………………………………………………..…………….. (Berrick Salome Parish Council Chairman) THE PARISH OF BERRICK SALOME Minutes of the Annual Parish Meeting held on 22nd May 2006 at the Berrick Salome Village Hall at 8.00 p.m. 1. Apologies for absence None were received. 2. Minutes of the last meeting The minutes of the last Annual Parish Meeting held on 6th June 2005 were read by John Radice, and approved and signed by Sarah Hicks. 3. Matters arising Item 11: Chris Cussens informed the Meeting that the Millstream Day Centre was in need of a new cooker, costing around £2,000. 4. The Annual Report of Parish Council This was presented by the chairman, Sarah Hicks. The main focus of Parish Council activities this year has again been on planning issues. 13 planning applications have been presented this year and of these 6 were granted, 4 refused and 3 withdrawn. One of those granted was for the Home Sweet Home to build a first floor extension, which will allow them to offer Bed & Breakfast accommodation. The most controversial planning application we saw was for Roke Farm. The Parish Council called an extra meeting to discuss one version of the plans, and that was attended by many local residents as well as the architect and applicants. On that occasion we recommended that the plan be refused, they were then withdrawn and replaced with a slightly reduced version. This time, the plans split the Council and by a majority vote we recommended them for approval. The SODC planning committee then refused the application by unanimous vote.

  • The Bretons and Normans of England 1066-1154: the Family, the Fief and the Feudal Monarchy*
    © K.S.B. Keats-Rohan 1991. Published Nottingham Mediaeval Studies 36 (1992), 42-78 The Bretons and Normans of England 1066-1154: the family, the fief and the feudal monarchy* In memoriam R.H.C.Davis 1. The Problem (i) the non-Norman Conquest Of all the available studies of the Norman Conquest none has been more than tangentially concerned with the fact, acknowledged by all, that the regional origin of those who participated in or benefited from that conquest was not exclusively Norman. The non-Norman element has generally been regarded as too small to warrant more than isolated comment. No more than a handful of Angevins and Poitevins remained to hold land in England from the new English king; only slightly greater was the number of Flemish mercenaries, while the presence of Germans and Danes can be counted in ones and twos. More striking is the existence of the fief of the count of Boulogne in eastern England. But it is the size of the Breton contingent that is generally agreed to be the most significant. Stenton devoted several illuminating pages of his English Feudalism to the Bretons, suggesting for them an importance which he was uncertain how to define.1 To be sure, isolated studies of these minority groups have appeared, such as that of George Beech on the Poitevins, or those of J.H.Round and more recently Michael Jones on the Bretons.2 But, invaluable as such studies undoubtedly are, they tend to achieve no more for their subjects than the status of feudal curiosities, because they detach their subjects from the wider question of just what was the nature of the post-1066 ruling class of which they formed an integral part.

  • Material Remains: Plantagenet Corpses, Burial Sites, and Memorials
    Material Remains: Plantagenet Corpses, Burial Sites, and Memorials Carole M. Cusack Introduction The Middle Ages was an era in which peculiar significance was placed upon dead human bodies. Granted, this was most intensely felt in cases of the ‘holy dead’, those for whom it was anticipated that after a short period of time canonisation would follow hard upon the heels of death, such as the murdered Archbishop of Canterbury, Thomas Becket (d. 1170). The prompt response of Pope Alexander III, who canonised Becket in 1173, and the rapturous embrace of the cult of Saint Thomas, seen in the pilgrimage from Southwark to Canterbury immortalised in Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, is a particularly clear example, especially when the gruesome details of the relic-taking from the martyr’s corpse are known.1 Yet the bodies of royalty could, under certain circumstances, be revered in like fashion: a phenomenon such as the rapid growth of Gloucester Abbey (now Cathedral) as a pilgrimage site, due to the burial of Edward II in December 1327 and the lavish gifts that his son Edward III made to the church testifies to this (as does Richard II’s formal request to the Papacy that his Carole M. Cusack is a Professor of Religious Studies at the University of Sydney.
