SPATIAL CHANGES in an OXFORD PUBLIC ASYLUM YUXIN PENG1 Introduction Existing Anthropological Literature on Mental Health in Publ
SPATIAL CHANGES IN AN OXFORD PUBLIC ASYLUM YUXIN PENG1 Abstract This article examines spatial changes at Littlemore hospital in Oxford between 1846 and 1956, the period since its foundation as a Victorian public asylum to the very last years before a radical psychiatric reform was implemented. I propose to see the asylum and later hospital spaces of Littlemore as being bodily sensed and co-productive with social processes. Specifically, I discuss the entanglement of these spaces with three factors: (panoptical) control, considerations of cost, and residents’ comfort. With emphases on residents’ bodily well-being and experiences, I aim to present a dynamic account of this part of the history of institutionalized mental health. Introduction Existing anthropological literature on mental health in public institutions has a strong interest in power. As noted by Lorna Rhodes in her ethnography of maximum-security prisons in the USA, although she does not see her project as ‘an application of Foucault to prisons’, she has found it impossible not to address the distinction between reason and madness and the phenomenon of panoptical observation (Rhodes 2004: 15). Regarding the specificity of her research topic, which is about severe mental health in the most secure prisons in America, an orientation towards these themes is both reasonable and suitable. Rhodes’ later work on psychiatric citizenship looks at it from the inmate’s perspective. By analysing the interviews, letters, poems, and drawings she obtained from Sam, an inmate whose mental health worsened in this supermax prison, Rhodes discusses how psychiatric citizenship is formed in a strictly controlled institutional setting by one’s attachment to a psychological report made on one’s case, which also led Sam to a new way of making sense of his own history (Rhodes 2010). -
Cropredy Bridge by MISS M
Cropredy Bridge By MISS M. R. TOYNBEE and J. J. LEEMING I IE bridge over the River Chenveff at Cropredy was rebuilt by the Oxford shire County Council in J937. The structure standing at that time was for T the most part comparatively modern, for the bridge, as will be explained later, has been thoroughly altered and reconstructed at least twice (in J780 and 1886) within the last 160 years. The historical associations of the bridge, especiaffy during the Civil War period, have rendered it famous, and an object of pilgrimage, and it seems there fore suitable, on the occasion of its reconstruction, to collect together such details as are known about its origin and history, and to add to them a short account of the Civil War battle of 1644, the historical occurrence for which the site is chiefly famous. The general history of the bridge, and the account of the battle, have been written by Miss Toynbee; the account of the 1937 reconstruction is by Mr. Leeming, who, as engineer on the staff of the Oxfordshire County Council, was in charge of the work. HISTORY OF TIlE BRIDGE' The first record of the existence of a bridge at Cropredy dates, so far as it has been possible to discover, from the year 1312. That there was a bridge in existence before 1312 appears to be pretty certain. Cropredy was a place of some importance in the :\1iddle Ages. It formed part of the possessions of the See of Lincoln, and is entered in Domesday Book as such. 'The Bishop of Lincoln holds Cropelie. -

Traditional Windows: Their Care, Repair and Upgrading
Traditional Windows Their Care, Repair and Upgrading Summary The loss of traditional windows from our older buildings poses one of the major threats to our heritage. Traditional windows and their glazing make an important contribution to the significance of historic areas. They are an integral part of the design of older buildings and can be important artefacts in their own right, often made with great skill and ingenuity with materials of a higher quality than are generally available today. The distinctive appearance of historic hand-made glass is not easily imitated in modern glazing. Windows are particularly vulnerable elements of a building as they are relatively easily replaced or altered. Such work often has a profound affect not only on the building itself but on the appearance of street and local area. With an increasing emphasis being placed on making existing buildings more energy efficient, replacement windows have become a greater threat than ever before to the character of historic buildings and areas. This guidance covers both timber and metal windows and is aimed at building professionals and property-owners. It sets out to show the significance of traditional domestic windows by charting their history over centuries of technical development and fashion. Detailed technical advice is then provided on their maintenance, repair and thermal upgrading as well as on their replacement. This guidance was written and compiled by David Pickles, Iain McCaig and Chris Wood with assistance from Nick Molyneux and Eleni Makri. First published by English Heritage September 2014.
