Mayor's perambulation of the City bounds: 26 August 1886


Mayor: Robert Buckell

See also article by John Gilbert describing the boundaries up to this time

The following was published in Jackson's Oxford Journal on 28 August 1886. It is an extremely long article, possibly because this was the last inspection of the old city boundaries, which were due to be extended the following year. At least six boundary stones erected in 1886 and inscribed with Buckell's name survive.
