19th February
Stephen Wass : Fish ponds
Fishponds, many from the Middle Ages, are a common feature of the landscape yet their significance in terms of diet and economy is often misunderstood. Archaeologist Stephen Wass takes us on a tour of local watery settings from the Roman period up until the eighteenth century and explains that there is far more to fishponds than meets the eye.
19th March
Alan Wolstencroft: Alans Africa
Alan joined Banbury Rotary Club in 2004, and in 2005 he visited Sierra Leone as a member of a Rotary Mission Challenge Team, with Mercy Ships, for what he believed would be a “one off life experience”, BUT those 11 days were life changing for him and he has now visited Sierra Leone 15 times.
