SUMMARY:Drovers’ Roads in Oxfordshire and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:In centuries past drovers took cattle, sheep and ponies from the far reaches of West Wales to London and the South East, passing through Oxfordshire on the way.\n \nThis talk tells of the wilderness paths which they followed to avoid paying fees at toll gates, with the dangers of harsh weather and highway robbery.  It also describes drovers’ lives, their favoured inns and the tell-tale marks which they left on the landscape.\n \nAbingdon lay on their route to London and Tim details the stir they caused as they drove their wild Welsh ponies through the town!\n \nThis talk is free to members of Berkshire Family History Society and we request a donation of £5 from non-members. Pre-booking is required because the meeting link will be e-mailed in advance. Booking ends one day before the event. \nTo join this meeting you will need a computer device which has a microphone and speakers.
