Built in the
1820's, it was the center of a large Oxford farm on what would become
Locust St. Acquired by Rev. John Miller Dickey in 1830, then his son
J.M.C.Dickey in1878, it remained in this family until 1928. When
the Dickeys discontinued residence, it was turned into apartments and was
finally razed and replaced with Ware Presbyterian Village in the late
1970s.

The Oxford
Green in the early 1900s was graced by a fountain that offered water to
horses above and to dogs and other smaller beasts below. No one
remembers exactly when it was removed or where it went when
discarded. Many villages at the time had similar community watering
arragements for horses. The only Oxford community horse watering
arrangement today is at Redner's Warehouse grocery
store.
