Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Product Description Located on Oxfordshire's western fringe between the rivers Leach and Thames, the nine rural settlements covered in this volume are typical Cotswold villages, with their limestonebuilt farmhouses, their former open fields, and their extensive former sheep pastures. All belonged to a sizeable late AngloSaxon estate whose breakup gave rise to the later parish structure: Langford church, with its celebrated late eleventhcentury tower, may have begun as a small minster. Excavations at Radcot have revealed much about the settlement's early character, including the discovery of a twelfthcentury castle. The area as a whole is predominantly agricultural, though milling, malting and quarrying have all been significant. Woodland at Bradwell Grove was important from the middle ages. In later years the villages developed in diverse ways, displaying contrasting closed and open characteristics.The most famous village is arguably Kelmscott, where the designer William Morris rented Kelmscott Manor as a summer home from 1871; but Filkins was home to the Labour politician Sir Stafford Cripps, who worked with local craftsmen to build severalCotswoldstyle houses and community buildings there. Gentry houses include the nineteenthcentury Gothic mansion at Bradwell Grove, which became the centre of a substantial estate and later of the Cotswold Wildlife Park.Table of ContentsBroadwell, Langford, and Kelmscott: Cotswolds to ThamesBroadwell ParishBroughton Poggs ParishLangford ParishList of AbbreviationsSources Review This is an admirable volume which maintains the high standards of historical research and readable presentation which have been set by the recent volumes in the Oxfordshire series .This is a truly impressive record.
