Artweeks returns to Great Coxwell

8/4/2022

 
Picture
Ceramics, Drawing, Jewellery, Painting, Pottery, Sculpture, Quilts, Wirework, Wood: after a 2 year break, the picturesque village of Great Coxwell is once again playing host to ten artists and craftspeople over two weekends for Oxfordshire Artweeks. Follow the trail map from the beautiful Great Barn, where there will be a demonstration of green woodworking, down to the 12th century church, where you can stock up your garden and allotment from the plant stall. On the way, call into the Stable Studio where you will find ceramics and stone carving, and Peter's Barn and the Chicken Barn where you can see quilts, painting, digital art and wire modelling. Down the lane, stop off at Chapel House to see jewellery and paintings before taking a well-earned break in the Reading Room where there will be delicious homemade refreshments all day; teas/coffees, lunches and the most amazing cakes!

Great Coxwell Artists look forward to meeting you!

Open 14/15 and 21/22 May, 11 – 5. Venue number 203

Donkeys

8/4/2022

 
​To Everyone in Great Coxwell..

We are very sad that we cannot lead the Palm Sunday Procession with one of our donkeys. We had to make the very difficult decision to have little Fee put down last week at the age of 31yrs, 27 of which were spent with us.

Dora now has a new companion, an 8yr old gelding called Kevin. He was born in Northern Ireland in 2014 and has spent most of his life moving from one home to another and as a result he is very nervous and frightened. Dora, who worked as a pack donkey in Bulgaria, is trying very hard to look after and make friends with Kevin but it is early days.

We are very grateful for the interest and support we have from the village for our donkeys.
Happy Easter to everyone, Angela and Peter Scales.

Faringdon & District U3A Meeting on Thursday 12th May ‘22

6/4/2022

 
The speaker Chrissie Harper will talk about her work with tawny owls, barn owls, little owls and kestrels at Chrissie’s Owls at Stonesfield near Charlbury where she provides a rescue service for injured wild owls and captive bred owls that need caring for and rehoming.  This is a non-profit organisation.  Chrissie will bring several of her captive bred owls to help illustrate her talk.  The talk will start at 2.30pm and be followed by refreshments for everyone.  All members are welcome to attend but visitors are required to pay £1.50 each.

NB  We want everyone coming to U3A to feel safe and protected, so we ask that you only attend general meetings if you are feeling well and are not showing signs of Covid.  Please take a test if you are in any doubt, and in that way we can try to safeguard all members attending talks and events.  

Conservation Area

6/4/2022

 
Dear Sir/Madam

We are emailing to invite you to have your say on proposed changes to the conservation area in Great Coxwell as you have been identified as an important stakeholder.

What is a conservation area?
The village’s conservation area is the designated area of special architectural or historic interest which exists to protect the features and characteristics that make Great Coxwell a historic, unique and distinctive place.

Why are we reviewing the conservation area?
It is a requirement that all councils coordinate and publish appraisals for the preservation and enhancement of conservation areas and that these proposals are reviewed from time to time.

This is the first comprehensive Conservation Area Appraisal document that has been produced for Great Coxwell. The document has been authored by the Great Coxwell neighbourhood plan team. We have a statutory duty to consult the public on this new document before it is adopted.


Have your say as part of our review process
As part of the review process, we are now inviting comments on the proposed changes to the Great Coxwell Conservation Area Appraisal document. 

You can find out more information about the review on our website.  

How to comment
We are inviting your comments on the Great Coxwell Conservation Area Appraisal document during an eight-week consultation period which runs from Wednesday 6 April until 11.59pm Wednesday 1 June.


The quickest and easiest way to comment is to use our online comment form.

Note that this is a unique link just for you and is tied to your email address. If you would like to forward this message to anybody else, please refer them to the public link to the survey.

What happens next
After the consultation period ends, we will consider your comments and make appropriate changes to the draft document and boundary revision before we proceed to adopt it via the council’s cabinet process. Once adopted, we will publish the cabinet report, new conservation area appraisal document and adopted revised boundary on our website.

We look forward to hearing your views.

Kind regards

Boris van der Ree
Conservation Enquiry Officer
Vale of White Horse District Council
