Oxfordshire’s Military Heritage in 50 Objects

Speaker: James Wilkins

Tue, 7 Apr 2026

About the lecture:

Fifty objects across the archive have been selected from the Soldiers of Oxfordshire Museum to provide moments of insight into the county’s military history. These objects reflect on the personal stories of not only those who fought in both the Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry and Oxfordshire Yeomanry regiments, but also those living in Oxfordshire who have been impacted by conflict.
