  • Timeline of Marston Below Is a Brief Timeline of the History of Marston Courtesy of Stephanie Jenkins of Headington.Org.Uk
    Timeline of Marston Below is a brief timeline of the history of Marston courtesy of Stephanie Jenkins of headington.org.uk. There have been two Palaeolithic finds in Marston, but the Romans do not appear to have had a BC settlement there AD 1086 Domesday Book: Marston (then a hamlet of Headington) was too small to be mentioned Until this time, all the low ground of Marston is believed to have been under water. Old Marston village AD 1100 was now an island in the Cherwell. It had its own chapel, which was dependent on Headington. It was part of the Royal Manor at Headington (which also owned Binsey and Osney). First written occurrence of the name of Marston. Its chapel is referred to as a church for the first time, and by the end of the twelfth century it was dedicated to St Nicholas. Henry I gave the chapel of Marston to the canons of St. Frideswide’s. AD 1122 The chancel arch and seven arches of the nave survive which suggests a considerable community cultivating surrounding fields – workable by ditching and draining. The tenant had rights of commoning cattle and cutting furze, fern and dead wood. In this year the population of Marston consisted of the Vicar, two freeholders (the miller and a man appearing to live at Court Place) and 46 unfree tenants. First mention of a Marston ferry. Hugh de Molendino held a mill at Marston. (Hundred Rolls). There was a mill at the end of Mill Lane near Sescut Farm which would disappear and re-appear in the AD 1279 records up to the 1400s.

  • Access to Headington & Traffic Issues
    Access to Headington Summary of feedback from the public consultation on the initial proposals General/area-wide comments . Numerous respondents were concerned by proposals to remove grass verges and trees to accommodate junction improvements, bus priority and pedestrian/cycle facilities. For many the loss of any trees would be unacceptable. Other respondents understood why this might be required in places but felt the impact of proposals could be minimised and mitigated through additional trees being planted in the local area. There were many comments relating to proposals to remove on-street parking to provide bus or cycle lanes. Whilst some respondents welcomed the potential changes, such as cyclists and commuters, residents directly affected were generally against the idea, and those living nearby were concerned about the potential knock-on effect of more parking in neighbouring side-roads. Some respondents also felt the loss of parking would result in increased traffic speeds. The introduction of raised entry treatments at side roads was met with mixed views with some regarding them as a positive addition in so far as they would improve safety for vulnerable users such as the elderly, young children and cyclists. Other respondents felt they provided little benefit and cited concerns about confusion over who has right of way, maintenance costs, and potential drainage issues. Some respondents felt proposals should accommodate additional measures in areas of Headington outside the main project area. In particular, respondents wanted improvements to manage the amount and speed of traffic using routes off the main highway, together with improvements to adjoining walking and cycling routes.

  • 1900S in Marston
    1900s in Marston Below are documents showing life in Marston in the 1900s. Marston Quarterly Notes: CHRISTMAS, 1906 OUR PATRON SAINT: FATHER CHRISTMAS. (The following is the conclusion of the article on St. Nicholas, which appeared in last issue 1906). Another attribute of the saint is the protection he affords to sailors. The reason for this is that on one occasion, when he was making a voyage to the Holy Land and a tempest arose, his prayers assuaged it; while another time he is said to have appeared to and saved some mariners who implored his assistance. For this reason St. Nicholas is frequently seen with ships in the background. In honour of St. Nicholas there are at the present, time close on, if not quite, four hundred churches dedicated to the saint in England, and there are few seaport towns throughout the world which have not one at least. The largest parish church in England is St. Nicholas at Yarmouth, which dates back to 1190, while another scarcely smaller is at Hull. In inland towns these St. Nicholas churches are rare, but when they do occur they are generally close to navi- gable rivers, and London boasts more than one. The most notable is probably St. Nicholas Cole Abbey, within a stone’s throw of the Thames, and no one needs to have it pointed out that Cole is merely another way of writing Cola, which is a shortened form of Nicholas. St. Nicholas Cole Abbey is, therefore, nothing more than the Abbey Church of St. Nicholas, with the name written twice over.
