This map was produce for the sale of the Lew Estate in 1914. There used to be a Post Office and a school in Lew, both shown on this map between University Farm and Holy Trinity Church on the main road.

This map of 1797 shows the Bampton Hundred and the fields. There is also a map of St Giles in Oxford at this time. Today, Kelmscott is spelt with two Ts but on this map it has one.
This map is from 1913 and covers the area from Marsh Lane on the eastern edge of Clanfield west across Weald. However, all of Bridge Street, half the Talbot Inn, the west side of the Market Square, the South side of Church Street and Church View are all in Weald and they are not shown here, possibly because the map was for agricultural purposes. There are some very interesting notes added in pencil.
This map shows the Bampton Estates at 1789. This is before the fields were enclosed and the names of the people who farmed the strips or the name of the field area are on the map. The Quies fields are each side of the Bampton to Brize Norton road, just north of what is now Hobbs Buildings. The Clanfield to Bampton road is showing top to bottom on the map whereas it really runs east west, so you need to get your head around that, literally. What we now call Welcome Way is called Wiltham Way - it runs south from Cowleaze Corner into Weald. Weald Common Meadow was south of what we now think of as the area containing the two Bampton Business Parks. The Bampton to Buckland road is showing going left to right on the map when it actually runs NW to SE; it had a turnpike.
