Archaeological Work in Oxford, 2012
Oxoniensia 78 txt 4+index_Oxoniensia 17/11/2013 12:05 Page 213 ROMANO-BRITISH VILLA AT COMBE 213 NOTES Archaeological Work in Oxford, 2012 In 2012 the Heritage and Specialist Services Team completed the Oxford Archaeological Plan (OAP). The resulting resource assessment, research agenda and characterisation reports are available on the council website, along with a six-year Archaeological Action Plan for the city. The year also saw a number of substantial city centre projects resulting from the expansion of college facilities, and some notable new information resulting from small-scale commercial and domestic development. Provisional summaries for selected sites are provided below. SELECTED PROJECTS 19 St Andrew’s Lane, Headington In January JMHS carried out an archaeological evaluation prior to the construction of a small extension at 19 St Andrew’s Lane. The evaluation recorded a post-medieval well and a series of cess pits filled with dump deposits containing animal bone, late-medieval and early post- medieval pottery and brick. At least six post holes from an unidentified structure possibly post- dating the pits were recorded. Nos. 6–7 High Street (Jack Wills, formerly Ryman’s Stationers) In February three test pits were excavated in the basement of Nos. 6–7 High Street by OA. A number of medieval pits containing domestic and butchery waste were recorded, along with a stone drain or wall foundation. The backfill of one feature contained a fired clay annular discoidal loom weight of likely early to middle Anglo-Saxon date (c.400–850). In June a lift pit was excavated in the basement revealing in section the edge of a possible wood-lined pit, potentially a ‘cellar pit’. -

George Edmund Street
DOES YOUR CHURCH HAVE WORK BY ONE OF THE GREATEST VICTORIAN ARCHITECTS? George Edmund Street Diocesan Church Building Society, and moved to Wantage. The job involved checking designs submitted by other architects, and brought him commissions of his own. Also in 1850 he made his first visit to the Continent, touring Northern France. He later published important books on Gothic architecture in Italy and Spain. The Diocese of Oxford is extraordinarily fortunate to possess so much of his work In 1852 he moved to Oxford. Important commissions included Cuddesdon College, in 1853, and All Saints, Boyne Hill, Maidenhead, in 1854. In the next year Street moved to London, but he continued to check designs for the Oxford Diocesan Building Society, and to do extensive work in the Diocese, until his death in 1881. In Berkshire alone he worked on 34 churches, his contribution ranging from minor repairs to complete new buildings, and he built fifteen schools, eight parsonages, and one convent. The figures for Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire are similar. Street’s new churches are generally admired. They include both grand town churches, like All Saints, Boyne Hill, and SS Philip and James, Oxford (no longer in use for worship), and remarkable country churches such as Fawley and Brightwalton in Berkshire, Filkins and Milton- under-Wychwood in Oxfordshire, and Westcott and New Bradwell in Buckinghamshire. There are still some people for whom Victorian church restoration is a matter for disapproval. Whatever one may think about Street’s treatment of post-medieval work, his handling of medieval churches was informed by both scholarship and taste, and it is George Edmund Street (1824–81) Above All Saints, Boyne His connection with the Diocese a substantial asset for any church to was beyond doubt one of the Hill, Maidenhead, originated in his being recommended have been restored by him. -

A watching brief was carried out on the reconstruction of St. Swithin’s farmhouse and the construction of a golf course. The area had been previously identified as the site of a medieval chapel and moated farmhouse. The moat was identified: it had been filled with domestic rubbish within the last 150 years and badly damaged by successive construction work. J.G.P. Erskine, AAU Hollywood Tower, ST 57508150. A desk-based assessment of the Hollywood Tower estate, which includes an early 19th-century mansion and 54 ha of parkland, woods and agricultural land, identified three archaeo- logical sites.
