It has the largest Church of England clergy training centre, Ripon College Cuddesdon. Residents number approximately 430 in Cuddesdon's nucleated village centre and about 70 in the hamlets of Denton and Chippinghurst (2001 census). HistoryCuddesdon's toponym is derived from the Old English Cuddes Dune meaning "Cudde's Hill" or the "Hill of Cuthwine". When Oxfordshire was administered in hundreds, Cuddesdon parish was in the hundred of Bullingdon. Cuddesdon was an Anglo-Saxon linear village along what is now High Street, but since the 19th century Church of England additions on the northern edge of the village and 20th century residential developments (principally Bishop's Wood and Parkside), it has become a nuclear settlement centred on The Green. Since the 1950s many facilities and businesses in Cuddesdon, as in similar English villages, have closed, and most have been converted into housing for an increasingly commuter population. These include the petrol station, the shop, the school, the mill, the second public house and various farm buildings. Thus, the village has turned from a compact community into what is largely a dormitory village. SiteThe parish is bounded by the River Thame to the east and southeast, its tributary Cuddesdon Brook to the north, by the road between Wheatley and Garsington to the west and by field boundaries to the southwest. The village is on a hill that overlooks south Oxfordshire, northern Berkshire, the Aylesbury Vale in central Buckinghamshire and a small part of west Bedfordshire.{{citation needed|date=May 2010}} There are views of both the Chiltern Hills and the North Wessex Downs AONB stretching from Ivinghoe Beacon in the east to Didcot Power Station in the west. The village todayCulture and eventsA free monthly parish newsletter is combined with social venues and events in the village, such as the annual Guy Fawkes Night fireworks, a summer fête and various groups that meet regularly such as the film club. Most social activities are organised or co-ordinated by the Parish Council or its subsidiaries. The Church of England parish church of All Saints, the Bat and Ball inn, the Village Hall, Ripon College Cuddesdon and the farms are economically active. Public policyIn November 2007 a public consultation was held on the proposed Parish Plan - a strategic document aiming to chart the hopes of the village for twenty years to come. Formal encouragement exists in civil parish and district planning policy to reopen a village shop, as yet unforthcoming. {{clear}}Ecclesiastical presenceParish churchAbingdon Abbey founded the Church of England parish church of All Saints in Cuddesdon in about AD 1180.{{sfn|Sherwood|Pevsner|1974|p=562}} All Saints' parish belongs to the Aston and Cuddesdon Deanery of the Diocese of Oxford. Bishop's palaceCuddesdon Palace was completed by 1634 for John Bancroft, who was Bishop of Oxford from 1632 until 1641.[2] In 1644 during the English Civil War Royalist forces burned the palace to render it unusable by the Parliamentarian forces besieging Oxford.[2] In 1676 John Fell was made Bishop of Oxford and in 1679 he commissioned the complete rebuilding of the palace.[2] In 1846 Bishop Samuel Wilberforce had the chapel of Saints Peter and Paul added to the Palace.[2] It was designed by the Gothic Revival architect Benjamin Ferrey.[2]Successive Bishops of Oxford resided at the palace until Thomas Banks Strong retired in 1937.[2] For the duration of the Second World War Queen Anne's Bounty was evacuated from London and occupied the palace.[2] Thereafter, The Society of the Salutation of Mary the Virgin occupied the palace from 1946 until 1949.[2] In the 1960s the palace was in private use for a few years, but it burnt down before the end of that decade. The bishop's chapel escaped the fire and survives today.{{sfn|Sherwood|Pevsner|1974|p=563}} Theological collegeIn 1854 Bishop Wilberforce founded Cuddesdon College on land opposite the Palace to train men to become Anglican clergy. In 1975 the college merged with Ripon Hall to form Ripon College Cuddesdon. Due to the extent of past and present church connections, the village is also known as the "Holy Hill". It has been suggested that in Cuddesdon "the presence of the Church has been more strongly felt than perhaps anywhere else in England".[3] Territorial designationAfter his retirement in 1991, Robert Runcie, former Archbishop of Canterbury, a former vicar of Cuddesdon and college principal was granted a peerage as Baron Runcie of Cuddesdon to remain in the House of Lords. Notable peopleSir Edward Loughlin O'Malley, former Attorney General of Hong Kong, Chief Justice of the Straits Settlements and Chief Judge of the British Supreme Consular Court at Constantinople, purchased property in what had been Denton in 1892. He died at his residence, Denton House, and was buried in Cuddesdon in 1932.[4] References1. ^{{cite web |url=http://neighbourhood.statistics.gov.uk/dissemination/LeadTableView.do?a=7&b=798639&c=Cuddesdon&d=16&e=15&g=480899&i=1001x1003x1004&o=1&m=0&r=1&s=1268755335703&enc=1&dsFamilyId=779 |title=Area: Cuddesdon and Denton CP (Parish): Parish Headcounts |author= |date= |work=Neighbourhood Statistics |publisher=Office for National Statistics |accessdate=16 March 2010}} 2. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 {{harvnb|Lobel|1957|pp=96–116.}} 3. ^{{harvnb|Chapman|2004|p=}}{{page needed|date= September 2013}} 4. ^A History of the County of Oxford Vol 5 and http://www.bernieworld.net/Cemeteries/Murrisk/Murrisk%20Cemetery.htm Sources
