Church of the Lost Village of Hampton Gay, Oxfordshire

Hampton Gay is a lost village near the River Cherwell all that seems to remain is St Giles Church all on its own in a field, the Ruins of Hampton Gay Manor and a farm. The church overlooks the River Cherwell and The busy Railway Line from Birmingham to Oxford.

The Church is still consecrated but I couldn't find any services it was locked on the day of this video but it was open on a previous visit.

Nearby are the ruins of a papermill. It overlooks the location of the terrible Christmas Eve Shipton-on-Cherwell train crash when 3 carriages derailed and one ended up in the canal many of the 34 dead were laid out in the Papermill.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.
