  • Jens Evans Has Been Smooth and Lifted a Heavy Weight of Responsibility from Me
    OXFORD WILDLIFE NUMBER 117 NEWS SUMMER 2018 Are you a friend of Hedgehogs? See inside! 2 A Message from Janet Keene, Editor of Oxford Urban Wildlife News. Those of you who have been readers of this magazine for some time, may remember that in issue Number 114 (Summer 2017) I wrote in an editorial that, in May of that year, I was diagnosed as having had a mild stroke. The prognosis for an eventual good recovery was considered good, as long as stress was avoided. I decided upon advice that it was in my best interests to resign my post as ‘chairperson’ of the committee of OUWG as soon as possible. The transfer of ‘chairperson’ to Jens Evans has been smooth and lifted a heavy weight of responsibility from me. Jens introduces himself in the following page. At the time that I resigned the chair, I also announced to the committee that after editing the OUWG Newsletter for 100 issues (since 1992), I would be happy to pass that responsibility to a younger member of the group but would continue as editor until a new editor was found. As is so often the case with that sort of statement, I found myself remaining editor by default. However, I continued to enjoy the responsibility of providing a magazine which was focussed on Boundary Brook Nature Park but provided an umbrella organisation, drawing attention to the work of other environmental organisations throughout the city. See this issue. The JR Hospital periodically monitored the effects of my mini stroke for a year and at that point, I was released from further monitoring, although I was still not allowed to drive and the loss of full physical fitness and some short term memory problems have persisted.

  • 4 Vegetation Dynamics on Port Meadow 4.1 History of Port Meadow
    4 Vegetation dynamics on Port Meadow 4.1 History of Port Meadow Port Meadow (132 ha) and Wolvercote Common (39 ha) (the Meadow) are adjacent commons lying on the River Thames flood-plain within Oxford City boundary (Map 2.5). They have been grazed since at least the Bronze Age and have never been ploughed. Shiplake Ditch forms the boundary between Port Meadow and Wolvercote Common. The common land and Hook Meadow form part of a larger Site of Special Scientific Interest first notified in 1952 and re-notified under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981. The Nature Conservancy Council’s citation (1983) states that the history of ecological interest in the Meadow was taken into account so the SSSI should be extended to the whole of Port Meadow with Wolvercote Common, with the exception of the Wolvercote allotment gardens. The Meadow is also important as a gene bank of species, particularly well adapted to heavy grazing, which have already been fundamental in the development of agricultural leys (McDonald forthcoming). In 2004, Port Meadow was confirmed as a Special Area of Conservation under European Union legislation because of the presence of Apium repens. The whole was registered as a Scheduled Ancient Monument in 1993 because there are the remains of six Bronze Age burials and three Iron Age settlement sites and field systems on the commons (Map 4.1). Both commons are owned or held in Trust by Oxford City Council and Oxfordshire County Council under Section 9 of the Commons Registration Act 1965. Under the same Act, the Freemen of Oxford and the Wolvercote Commoners registered grazing rights for 1,365 horses, 1,890 cattle, 6 donkeys, 48 ducks and 1,192 geese.

  • Oxford City Council Local Plan 2036
    Oxford City Council Local Sites Audit Plan 2036 BACKGROUND PAPER INTRODUCTION 1. This background paper forms part of the evidence base for the Oxford Local Plan 2036 and supplements the relevant background papers on Site Assessments that were published at the Issues stage of consultation in 2016 and the Preferred Options stage of consultation in 2017. For clarity, the 2016 and 2017 papers have not been reproduced here but this paper should be read alongside the previous papers. 2. The first part of the paper provides background information on the sites identified at Preferred Options Stage and provides information on how these were identified and the assessment process used to determine which sites would be taken forward for further investigation. 3. The second part sets out the differences between the list of sites accepted at Preferred Options stage and those taken forward into the Proposed Submission Plan. Within this section there is commentary on further reasons considered to help determine which sites should go forward and why sites were rejected at this stage. The section also includes commentary on additional sites that were added at this stage and the reasons for this. 4. The paper is supported by two Appendices. Appendix 1 is a list of Preferred Options rejected sites. This list has been updated with an additional column added to identify sites that were previously rejected but are now being accepted. The additional column contains commentary on why these sites are now being accepted and included within the Proposed Submission Plan. Appendix 2 is a list of the Preferred Options accepted sites.

  • The History and Plant Ecology of Hinksey Meadow T
    The History and Plant Ecology of Hinksey Meadow T. J. King I know what white, what purple fritillaries The grassy harvest of the river-fields, Above by Ensham, down by Sandford, yields And what sedged brooks are Thames’s tributaries,… Matthew Arnold (1866) Thyrsis (lines 107-110) . Summary The Oxfordshire Flora Group has counted fritillary plants (Fritillaria meleagris) on Hinksey Meadow (13 ha), owned and managed by the Oxford Preservation Trust, since 2003. A survey of the rest of the vegetation confirms that this is an historic flood meadow with 7 ha of a species-rich and diverse MG4a plant community. This makes an important contribution to the total area of this community in the UK.The baseline data in this paper will allow changes to the management or disturbance, such as the Oxford Flood Alleviation Scheme, to be closely monitored. Introduction This paper describes the vegetation of Hinksey Meadow at North Hinksey (33 acres, 13 ha, SP 494058) which appears to have a particularly species rich, diverse and characteristic flood meadow flora. It is owned by the Oxford Preservation Trust (OPT), is open to the public, and used for botanical excursions (Figure 1). The meadow is a Thames Valley Environmental Record Centre (TVERC) Local Wildlife Site (Osney Mead, 40Y04), part of the Upper Thames Environmentally Sensitive Area, and gained a Country Land & Business Association Wildlife Sites award 2001. The Jubilee Scrape was inserted in 2002, following the meandering palaeochannel which marks the original boundary of Medieval Oxford’s Franchises of Liberty (Local authority boundary until 1991); in early history it was part of the boundary between Mercia and Wessex, and later the boundary between Oxfordshire and Berkshire.
