Witney is a thriving market town with over 25,000 residents in over 10,000 households (according to recent figures from Oxfordshire County Council) making it the largest town in West Oxfordshire. The current MP for Witney is Conservative Party Leader David Cameron who became the new Prime Minister when voters went to the polls on Thursday May 6th after the Liberal Democrat Party joined the Conservative Party in forming a Coalition Government.

The town of Witney, world famous for its blankets, dates back to AD969, though there is some evidence of Iron Age and Roman settlements in the area.

The market town of Witney is the largest town in West Oxfordshire and is situated where the A40 trunk road crosses the River Windrush.

Witney was first recorded in AD 969, though there is evidence of both Iron Age and Roman settlements in the area.

In 1044 Queen Emma granted the Bishops of Winchester an estate in Witney and the ownership of the estate is confirmed in the Doomesday Book. A palace was built next to the parish church, the foundations of which were excavated in 1984. One of the streets in Witney, Queen Emmas Dyke, probably relates in some way to this granting of the estate by Queen Emma.

In the Doomesday survey, Witney is recorded as having two mills, both for grinding corn, but by 1277 at least one cloth or fulling mill was established in the area. By the end of the Middle Ages Witney was a lively market town with a developing industry making blankets and gloves and by 1800 there were five working mills in and around Witney.

So for centuries Witney has been associated with blankets. And although the last blanket mill closed in 2002, the association will live in the minds of locals and visitors alike for many years. One of the most famous blanket makers in the town, if not the biggest, was Early’s who were in business for more than 300 years.

In 1669, the Early family business was founded and in 1861 Charles Early opened a railway line from Yarnton to Witney which, in time, became part of the Great Western Railway. It was closed to passengers in 1962 and to freight in 1970.

In 1711 the Weavers formed a Guild and were granted a Charter by Queen Anne. They then built the blanket hall in the High Street. All blankets made in Witney had to be taken there to be measured and weighed, thus ensuring the very high quality of the blankets to be maintained.

The name Early’s still survives in the form of the Early’s of Witney factory shop in Wesley Walk.
