This triangular plot is marked as allotments on the 1905 OS 1:2500 map.
The Oxford canal is just out of view to the bottom left of this image. |

The G-AJOV depicted is a Sikorsky S-51, imported from the US production line. The designation "Westland Dragonfly HR3" refers to the licence-built, ex-Royal Navy aircraft which is preserved in the Cosford aircraft museum, painted as "G-AJOV". |

July? Distinct lack of leaves on a high proportion of trees. |

This is in the northernmost part of Oxfordshire, just a few hundred metres from the county boundary intersection with Northamptonshire and Warwickshire. |
