Martin Stott marks the anniversary of Bartlemas, a hidden treasure - ''On the 900th anniversary of the founding of the leper hospital at Bartlemas in east Oxford, Martin Stott charts its origins, turbulent history, its focus on the outcasts, dispossessed, and refugees of the times, and the healing, care, refuge and sanctuary it offered. He traces its impact on east Oxford over 900 years, drawing out the threads of these traditions, re-made and celebrated in the neighbourhood today.''Martin Stott is a photographer and local historian. His photobook Bartlemas: Oxford's hidden sanctuary is just out and will be available for sale on the evening.
