Having looked through an Old Diary above mentioned Bridge ( Rifle Plank ) was washed away on the 3rd of March 1995 and duly reported to a village Councillor.

With reference to the closed bridge over the back stream of the Cherwell. It does have a name but not sure if it is Rifle Plank or Rival Plank. Whichever is correct where did the name originate from?

Where is the Cuckoo this year ?  I have only heard it once this year so far. Last year it was heard most days and unusually in the area behind the White Lion.

Thankyou Clare, I`m surprised at Lower Heyford because the signal along the towpath is non existant perhaps they think it`s  the  Waterways  problem.

Is it possible to team up with other local villages who are having the same problem. Lower Heyford, Certain locations in Deddington , Middle Barton etc

Once again I have e-mailed Vodophone re lack of signal strength. They are now suggesting that my sim card is rather old so perhaps a new one would improve the reception. Perhaps we could pool the excuses that the Mobile Companies make and give an award for the Best One. Not much chance of any improvements now if Vodophone have to cough up all the Unpaid Tax Huh?

This the reply from Vodophone after a recent complaint to them. Thankyou for your e-mail. We are trialling a few options currently to help with signal in rural areas.We currently have a trial in West Berkshire using smaller antennas placed in public places rather than antennas to boost signal and we offer similar devices for the home. There`s more information here www.vodophone.co,uk/suresignal.We don`t have an antenna planned for Steeple Aston at the moment unfortunately but we are hoping if our trials are successful we can roll out similar setups to places such as Steeple Aston. Best Wishes Paul Vodophone Customer Relations

I have also e-mailed Vodophone and the reply was to  purchaes a 3G phone it was just another ploy to save making any improvements to their systems.

The Parish Council have known about this problem for at least two years and surely the lack of a signal affects the councillors as well. It must have been on the agenda previously.

It would appear that after almost 2 years nothing has been achieved and we are still searching for that elusive signal upstairs dpwnstairs in the garden and across the fields.Surely the P.C can take this up on behalf of the village.

It appears that Steeple Aston were unlucky in their Race to Infinity campaign. The nearest Village in Oxon was Blewbury. ( WWW.COMUTERACTIVE.CO.UK )
