Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
The paper describes the primary fabric and details of four churches of eleventh- and early-twelfth-century date in the vicinity of Wallingford -- St Michael, Aston Tirrold; All Saints, Aston Upthorpe; St John the Baptist, South Morton; and St Mary, Upton. The surveys were carried out between 2002 and 2005, and do not cover every architectural phase of the buildings, only the extant primary fabric and details, with the exception of St Michael, Aston Tirrold, which is a complex, multi-phase building of which an un-phased plan was made. The background to the development of local churches within the Domesday hundred of Blewbury is examined. the introductory section deals with the origins of Blewbury Hundred itself. It is argued that, though there is no direct documentary or archaeological evidence for a minster church at Blewbury, there is compelling circumstantial evidence for such a foundation having existed. The emergence of local churches within the hundred, a process not complete until the early-twelfth century, is described. The primary fabric of the churches themselves is then described and discussed in detail. Finally, various aspects of the churches are discussed in general. | ||||
