Ham Court along with the barns and outbuildings plus 22 acres was put up for sale by Jesus College Oxford in 2010 and was bought by Emma Bridgewater. This is the sales brochure and I'm sorry to say the scanned versions given to me clearly had something wrong with the colour but the text is perfect. The diagrams of the first and second floor are very interesting. See also entry 2017.529

St Beornwald of Bampton by John Blair 1984 He was an Anglo Saxon Saint and Bampton Church was originally called St Beornwald's
Bampton parish church was an Anglo-Saxon ‘old minster’. Scattered references show that St. Beornwald, described variously as ‘confessor’ and ‘priest and martyr’, was enshrined there from the mid 950s or earlier until the Reformation, and that the feast of his ‘deposition’ was celebrated on 21 December. A 14th-century gabled recess in the north transept may be part of his shrine; a monumental brass showing an ecclesiastic holding a crozier was possibly added in the early 15th century. It is suggested that Beornwald, who must have died between the mid 7th and mid 10th century, may have been head or founder of the minster community
