Deadline now extended to 13 October, please email the Black family estate eynsham.org.uk/contact.aspx... and save The Ox from the knacker's yard!
Could you give a loving home to this ox? Sculptor Michael Black is looking for a community organisation to give it a new home after plans to site an Ox for Oxford at the foot of Headington Hill were shelved due to lack of funds. The ox has been a regular attendee at May mornings since 1980.

Plans for an EV charging station on the A40 at Eynsham have been turned down for the second time by West Oxfordshire District Council planners. They said the development by the main road would “give rise to harm to the character and appearance of the area and setting of Eynsham”.

Spending a penny in West Oxfordshire could get more difficult as the district council proposes to close some public toilets, saying they cost it £270,000 a year despite a user charge of 20p.
