Astons First Blue Plaque
November 24, 2022 | Time: | Location: | Category: Astons Village News
Astons History Project are pleased to announce that Oxfordshire Blue Plaque Trustees have agreed to the installation of a blue plaque celebrating the life of Sir Patrick Abercrombie, who lived at the Red House on Moreton Road from 1945 until his death in 1957.
Abercrombie was a leading authority on national UK planning matters and garden-city initiatives, and internationally recognised as a pioneer of town and country planning. A huge thank you to Gavin and Anna Wood for engaging with the (very long) process!
The plaque ceremony will take place on July 13th 2023. More details nearer the time.
