This is an account of the final year of the 20th century in the village on the edge of Port Meadow. Unlike many of the village booklets compiled to mark the millennium, this one does not deal with history, but aims to record community life as it is now.
Although part of Oxford, the village has its own particular country character. As well as the usual village things toddler group, church, youth club there is a community orchard and a farm group in which families share care of a smallholding, complete with Gemma, the Jersey cow. The booklet is available from the Post Box, Wolvercote, at 3.50.
