Yes, it is a very interesting book, some nice old pictures & village maps, also indexed. Has a very good pic of John HONE (1844-1915) & his dog. John was one of the village carriers, obviously he done very well from this as he donated the land & a large sum of money for the building of the Methodist church in Adderbury. > So far unable to find a copy here in Australia. Are there any other worthwhile books of the Banbury district that are worth looking at please advise!!! Lots of good local books available - I should send Rosemary a list for the web site! Mark if you 'search' the Banbury list archives, query HONE, you will find 85 previous mentions for HONE.
