Hello everyone...
Sutton Courtenay is a village and civil parish on the River Thames 2 miles (3 km) south of Abingdon and 3 miles (5 km) northwest of Didcot. It was part of Berkshire until the 1974 boundary changes transferred it to Oxfordshire. The 2011 Census recorded the parish's population as 2,421.
A Neolithic stone hand ax was found at Sutton Courtenay. Petrological analysis in 1940 identified the stone as epitomized stuff from Stake Pass in the Lake District, 250 miles (400 km) to the north. Stone axes from the same source have been found at Abingdon, Alvescot, Kencot and Minster Lovell.
Excavations have revealed rough Saxon huts of the early stages of Anglo-Saxon colonization, but their most important enduring monument in Sutton was the massive causeway and weirs that separate the millstream from Sutton Pools. The causeway was probably built by Saxon labor. In 2010 the Channel 4 Time Team program excavated a field in the village and discovered what they then thought was a major Anglo-Saxon royal center with perhaps the largest great hall ever discovered in Britain.
Written records of Sutton's history began in 688 when King Ine of Wessex endowed the new monastery at Abingdon with the manor of Sutton. In 801, Sutton became a royal vill, with the monastery at Abingdon retaining the church and priest's house. It is believed that this was on the site of the 'Abbey' in Sutton Courtenay. The Domesday Book of 1086 shows that the manor of 'Sudtone' was owned half by the King and farmed mainly by tenants who owed him tribute. There were three mills, 300 acres (120 ha) of river meadow (probably used for dairy farming) and extensive woodlands where pigs were kept.
Sutton became known as Sutton Courtenay after the Courtenay family took residence at the Manor in the 1170s. Reginald Courtenay became the first Lord of Sutton after he had helped negotiate the path of the future king, Henry II, to the throne. Most historians believe that Matilda, the elder of the two children of Henry I of England, was born in Winchester; however, John M. Fletcher argues for the possibility of the royal palace at Sutton (now Sutton Courtenay) in Berkshire.

The Abbey Meditation Retreat Tour
In March 09 I went on an amazing Meditation retreat to The Abbey in Sutton Courtenay, Oxfordshire with Mind Springs and Alistair Appleton as teacher. It was over three days and we explored the skillful mindstates known in the Buddhist world as the Divine Abidings: Loving Kindness, Compassion, Joy and Equanimity. The Abbey is just so beautiful that I really wanted to capture it and share it with my friends and I suppose to capture the memory for myself. Please enjoy! :)

Middlesex Bob Triples at Chew Magna, Som
Start of a hard-earned Quarter Peal on this meaty, old-fashioned Somerset 8 set in some spectacular surroundings. The bells sound very fine indeed, some of Mears' better work, but they are extremely awkward to strike and their weight does not aid this. The acoustics aren't brilliant either, there is a sound chute for 3-4 (note the open trapdoor behind my head!!) I can't say much for the method either.... Worth the effort though (the bells rather than Middlesex!!)

Sutton Courtenay Photoshoot
My granddaughters are getting into photography, so i took them out to Sutton Courtenay for a bit of experience, they used each other as models, but the emphasis was on having fun, most of the shots were posed, but also those that looked candid were mostly staged.
Most of the photos were taken by the girls, and i took a few.
They were getting used to focus and blur, and capturing the moment in camera.
