The Leverton Stocks:
It is not yet known when stocks were first placed at Leverton, but those shown in the old photographs on the right are thought to have been installed in about 1898.
Those were in a very poor state by the early 1990s, and a new set of stocks and whipping post were built by Hugh and Geoffrey Doel (who run Swift Cleaners), and fitted with a plaque in commemoration of their father Ken Doel, who lived at Leverton Manor. They were installed in Oct 1994. See "Return of the Leverton stocks", NWN 6 Oct 1994.
Pror to the replacement in 1994, Thames Valley Archaeological Services carried out an excavation to determine the history of the stocks which had last been replaced in 1898. You can read the report here.
