    Thame Facts Did you know…

    1. Thame Hoard
      In April 1940, local lorry driver Willocks McKenzie found a hoard of coins and jewellery dating back 400 years. Declared ‘Treasure’, it became property of the Crown, so Willocks got his fifteen minutes of fame but sadly no a share of the gold.
    2. Greyhound Inn
      Educated at the local grammar school and wounded at the Battle of Chalgrove Field, Colonel John Hampden, was one of five men King Charles tried to arrest, the event that sparked the English Civil War.
    3. James Figg
      Browne’s house later became the Greyhound Inn, an infamous prize-fighting venue where another local, James Figg, became the English champion. Still standing, the pub now bears his name.
    4. Not Very Civil
      Like many towns across Oxfordshire, Thame was drawn into the English Civil War. It was occupied by royalists and parliamentarians at different times during the nine year conflict.
    5. Beer Bros
      Boddingtons might be proudly ‘northern’ but its roots lie in Thame. Henry Boddington was born at Thame Mill, his father was master of the town’s workhouse. In 1832 Henry joined his older brother as a clerk at Strangeways Brewery in Manchester. Soon they were running the renamed brewery, and the rest is delicious history. Cheers!
    6. The Henge
      A Neolithic enclosure was discovered during the building of a housing estate in 2015, which predates Stonehenge by 1,000 years. Further excavations unearthed a henge, Bronze Age spear heads and burial mound, round houses from the Iron Age, a Roman settlement and Anglo Saxon buildings.
    7. Early Doors
      King Wulfhere of Mercia visited Thame and with his hand upon an alter (the earliest sign of Christianity in the area) signed a charter.
    8. Greyhound Inn
      It was also listed in the Domesday Book (1086) as having 27 villagers, 26 smallholders, 5 slaves and a mill, with a value of 37 pounds.
