Segsbury Camp/Letcombe Castle yesterday afternoon, 20m north of The Ridgeway. The bank stands at 3m above the interior and the ditch is up to 7m deep. #hillfortswednesday

Village lock-ups were once used to hold petty criminals before they were released or sent to trial. ⛓️

They can be found across England and today the majority that survive date from the 18th and 19th centuries.

Have you ever spotted one of these buildings?

[VCH Oxfordshire @VCHOxfordshire]

Much looking forward to tomorrow's Oxfordshire Past in Bicester - lots of local history and archaeology, and updates from @VCHOxfordshire, @oxrecsoc, @OxonBuildings and many more. Still some places available: https://t.co/hbwhkRiPXs (includes free coffee/tea!)

Whilst on site visits today I stopped at St Etheldreda's #horley and she did not disappoint! C15 St Christopher with the earliest depictions of rod and line fishing in England. Tower and chancel date from 1180 and the remainder of the church is C13/14.

I wouldn't have been able to do my MA without drawing on her inspiring work on objects which were sometimes overlooked in Iron Age contexts 📿

Great to meet up with the County Archaeological Service at the @OxMuseumService stores at Standlake and get a look behind the scenes.
