Terry Crowley, the father of Rosemary Linnet Sanguine, bought Thatched Cottage in the early 1960s and set about doing some research on the dwelling, which is one of the oldest in Bampton. This pdf documents his findings.
The Thatched Cottage, in Church Street, probably the oldest house in Bampton. Terry and Wendy Crowley moved to Bampton in 1963 and the house was then derelict. Owned by William Lock and his wife Rose. History includes notes and text written by John Blair Historian.

Two certificates awarded to George William Glenister , who worked at Bampton Station, probably as Station Master. He lived with his wife in Church Street in one of the little cottages. It was Mrs. Glenister who was instrumental in introducing Vera Tanner to David Elward at one of the WI Hall dances during the war.
Mr Wheeler from Church street also worked at the station. Mr Maurice John, who lived at the house now named St. Johns in Broad Street, was the last Station Master.
