Minster Lovell is a village and civil parish on the River Windrush about 2.5 miles (4.0 km) west of Witney in Oxfordshire.
The team is working on a series of projects to record the village history, involving as many residents and ex-residents as possible.
What’s happening?
The film we made of the history of Minster Lovell has been updated and reworked in 2020. We also made a short film on how the team created that film. They bring back many memories. We hope you enjoy them.
We have created:
A book of war veterans (2016) and two books on village history
A 30 minute film on the history of the village, starring numerous residents in costume, narrated by Nathaniel Parker
A set of two DVDs containing photos, family trees, documents, stories, war dead, monumental inscriptions, maps and much more on the village.
We are continuing to work on:
Analysing Oxfordshire DNA and researching Oxfordshire surnames
A giant village family tree
The books and DVDs are available to buy from this website to support further research.
