Book Description
Excerpt from Memorials of Westcott Barton: In the County of Oxford Upon the appearance in 1866 of Mr. Wing's Annals of the Bartons, I almost resolved to abandon an intention I had formed, and which I was engaged in carrying out, viz., that of collecting Memorials of Westcott Barton. I have, however, been induced to proceed with my plan, and I now submit the collection to the reader. Names of books and documents referred to are inserted where it is requisite, and a simple transcript of the language of the authorities is given in some places as most conducive to an accurate acquaintance with the subject-matter. There is much in common with Mr. Wing's statements, but any information which has been obtained primarily from "The Annals" is acknowledged by the insertion of (W. W.) in the text. The Author expresses his thanks to many persons who have contributed information for the Memorials, but especially to the Rev. Edmund L. Lockyer, the rector, the Rev. Edward Marshall, of Sandford, and Henry Churchill, Esq., of Deddington, for permitting a free perusal of documents and deeds in their possession; to the Dean and Canons of Christ Church for the examination of the chartularies of the Abbeys of Oseney and Eynsham; to H. W. Hewlett, Esq., of London, and Mr. H. Turner, of Oxford, for copies and searches of sundry records; and to W. Wing, Esq., of Steeple Aston, for the use of his Annals of the Bartons. It remains only to add that the illustration of the church is from a photograph by T. Collinson, of Oxford, kindly lent to be reproduced for this book by the rector of the parish.

Book Description
As she awaits her execution at Oxford Castle, a newly wed woman from a God-fearing family, convicted for murdering her housemaid, is pardoned at the last minute by King George II. A butcher suddenly disappears and changes his identity after the tragic death of his young wife. A picture-frame maker from humble origins becomes ‘the richest man in Oxford’ and is at ease socialising with the luminaries of the Victorian art world. And a lovestruck local member of parliament with a serious gambling addiction dies in suspicious circumstances. These are some of the stories of individuals connected with the land and property on Middle Way in Summertown, Oxford, where the author now lives. The book presents an alternative history of Oxford and explores how Summertown evolved from being primarily an artisans’ village to becoming a well-heeled suburb of Oxford. Extensively referenced and using archival sources and interviews, a voice is also given to the living relatives of people connected with the land and property on Middle Way.
