Action 2: Improve safety The Parish Council now participate in the local transport group at slip-roads to with the police and neighbouring councils. The Chair of our A34 Parish Council has been very active in putting forward our concerns. Action 3: Reduce traffic New road markings on the Hill have not really solved the speed on Hinksey problem. Cats-eyes in the road have simply created a new Hill noise problem as large vehicles have to rumble over them. Action 4: Reduce the risk The Flood group has made progress with action taken by the of flooding railway authority to clear drain blockages and clearance of ditches and underground pipes in the village. In the last very heavy downpour there was no flooding in the village. Unfortunately the proposed bund around the village has been abandoned because the Environment Agency could not justify the high expenditure.

  • Samuel Lipscomb Seckham
    Samuel Lipscomb Seckham By PETER HOWELL l TIL recently the name of Samuel Lipscomb Seckham was fairly widely U known in Oxford as that of the architect of Park Town. A few other facts, such as that he was City Surveyor, were known to the cognoscenti. No-one, however, had been able to discover anything significant about his background, let alone what happened to him after he built the Oxford Corn Exchange in 1861-2. In '970 a fortunate chance led to the establishment of contact with Dr. Ann Silver, a great-granddaughter of Seckham, and as a result it has been po ible to piece together the outline ofhis varied career.' He was born on 25 October ,827,' He took his names from his grandparents, Samuel Seckham (1761-1820) and Susan Lipscomb (d. 18'5 aged 48).3 His father, William ('797-,859), kept livery stables at 20 Magdalen Street, Oxford,. and prospered sufficiently to retire and farm at Kidlington.5 The family came from Devon, where it is aid that Seccombes have occupied Seccombe Farm at Germans­ week, near Okehampton, since Saxon limes. Seccombes are still living there, farming. It is thought that Seckllam is the earlier spelling, but tombstones at Germansweek show several different versions. 6 It is not known how the family reached Oxford, but Samuel Lipscomb Seckham's great-grandmother Elizabeth was buried at St. Mary Magdalen in 1805.7 His mother was Harriett Wickens (1800-1859). Her grandfather and father were both called James, which makes it difficult to sort out which is which among the various James W;ckens' recorded in I The fortunate chance occurred when Mrs.

  • AN OXFORDSHIRE CHILDHOOD Gillian Mackie 1.IFFLEY. Our
    1 AN OXFORDSHIRE CHILDHOOD Gillian Mackie 1.IFFLEY. Our grandparents lived on Church Way, the loop of road right in front of the old Norman church of Iffley. Their house, which they called Avenham, was subsequently re-named Rick House, because it was built on the site of the cottages in the rickyard of an old farm. This may well have been the White family farm, as the parents of our grandmother Lily White lived in the adjacent house in their old age, and quite likely before this as well. This house is known to have been a farm-house. I was told as a child that the White family had "always" farmed in Iffley. I have always believed that Grandpa designed Avenham, which is an Italianate brick villa, and that he was an architect or landscape designer. Pat though says he worked for the Thames Conservancy & it was his father, in Lancashire, who followed this profession, and the name Avenham was taken from a park he had designed in Lancashire. It appears that Grandpa, George Edward Rowbotham, who was at school at St.Peter's, York, had done a year of studies in architecture before he came south in the 1890's and never went back. His drawing of Avenham on the right dates from about 1912 and is from Aunty Alice’s autograph book, which was discovered by Ken Hunnisett in a second-hand shop! Ken says the house still exists as No 101 Church Way. Grandpa cut his ties with his family in Preston, or rather they disowned him.

  • Seed Bank Plants Presentation
    Oxfordshire Recorders and Conservation Day, Saturday, 28 February 2015 Oxford University Museum of Natural History, Oxford OX1 3PW _______________________________________________________________________ Seed Bank Plants - presentation by Dr Judith A Webb All photos copyright J A Webb Introduction As long as I have been a botanist, I have been fascinated by seeds and growing plants from seeds. The theme of this conference is ‘Recording the Invisible’ and my imagination was first caught by the account of the resurrection of the rare plant Starfruit Damasonium alisma - apparently ‘back from the dead’. This had disappeared (been lost) in the flora of ponds that had become silted up or choked with emergent vegetation of sedge and bulrush, losing the shallow open water it needed. ‘Cleaning-out’ such a pond – removing most of the choking vegetation and silt to return it to an earlier successional stage – activates long-dormant (invisible) Starfruit seed held in the seed bank in the pond sediment (as long as some of the original sediment with dormant seed has been left or actively returned to the rejuvenated pond). It is important that we realise, as recorders, that a plant, though not seen as a flowering or vegetative organism, may not be extinct on a site. It may be still there but invisible in the form of viable but dormant seed in the soil or sediment. Such a seed bank might last for only a few years or for up to 100 years or longer depending on the species. What follows are some examples of what I have found out from my own observations and research on plants with seeds with long dormancy and those with short dormancy.
