CLANFIELD
About half a mile to the west of the village, at Little Clanfield, there were at one time two water mills on Little Clanfield Brook. One of them, Little Clanfield Mill, is now a private house but its machinery remains operational. Just south of the village is Friars Court, a moated farmhouse with attractive gardens. Although the present house dates from about 1650 the site can trace its history back to 1142 when it was established as the first ‘hospitaller’ in Oxfordshire by the charitable, religious order of the Knights Templar Order of St. John of Jerusalem. It was a place of rest for travellers and, when Radcot Bridge (a mile or so to the south) was built, the additional passing traffic led to Friars Court becoming an important stopping point. Today Friars Court is a popular venue for weddings. Clanfield is about 3 miles south of the Carterton and about 2.5 miles west of Bampton on the A4095. |
