Beschreibung

Oxfordshire is rich in many things--fine agricultural land and areas of dense woodland; delightful towns like Burford, Woodstock, Dorchester and Henley; the stately River Thames that bisects the county; the iron-stone villages of the northern border; the Oxford Canal meandering its way through remote countryside; splendid country houses at Blenheim, Chastleton and Rousham. The jewel in the crown is the city of Oxford itself, with its ancient honey-coloured buildings and dreaming spires. This book celebrates both Oxfordshire's well-known glories, and also hidden gems such as the ruined manor at Hampton Gay, the brewery at Hook Norton, the glories of Wytham Woods, and the forge at Clifton Hampden. Highlighting these and other gems, this book gives an enticing picture of the rich variety of experiences and sights the county of Oxfordshire offers.
