A History of the County of Oxford: XVI: Henley-On-Thames and Environs: Binfield Hundred, Part 1
ISBN: 9781904356387 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 398 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Focused on the south-west Chilterns, this volume looks at the riverside market town of Henley-on-Thames, now famous for its annual Royal Regatta, and at the four neighbouring parishes of Bix, Harpsden, Rotherfield Greys and Rotherfield Peppard. Henley began as a planned town, probably in the late twelfth century, and became a major inland port, funnelling grain, wood and (later) malt into London.

A History of the County of Oxford: XVIII: Benson, Ewelme and the Chilterns (Ewelme Hundred)
ISBN: 9781904356479 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 512 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Occupying a varied landscape in south-east Oxfordshire, the fourteen rural parishes covered in this volume extend from the river valleys of the Thames and Thame up onto the Chiltern hills. Nucleated villages and open fields dominated the vale, while the uplands feature dispersed settlement, early inclosure, and extensive wood-pasture. The two zones were closely linked by economic interdependence and, in the late Anglo-Saxon and early medieval period, by the influence of an important royal estate focused on Benson, which extended across the hills and formed the nucleus of Ewelme (formerly...

A History of the County of Oxford: XIV: Witney and Its Townships (Bampton Hundred Part Two)
ISBN: 9781904356257 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This volume comprises a history of the large west Oxfordshire town of Witney and its rural townships of Crawley, Curbridge, and Hailey, an area of over 7,000 acres derived from a large, late Anglo-Saxon estate. Witney, probably the site of the Anglo-Saxon estate centre, was redesigned as a planned new town' in the late twelfth or early thirteenth century; from the seventeenth century it was widely known for its blanket industry, and became a centre of religious non-conformity. The town's origins, buildings, and physical development are fully discussed, together with its economic, social and...

A History of the County of Oxford: XVII: Broadwell, Langford and Kelmscott: Bampton Hundred, Part 4
ISBN: 9781904356400 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. 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 limestone-built farmhouses, their former open fields, and their extensive former sheep pastures. All belonged to a sizeable late Anglo-Saxon estate whose break-up gave rise to the later parish structure: Langford church, with its celebrated late eleventh-century 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 twelfth-century...
