Open Downland
8. LANDSCAPE TYPE 1: OPEN DOWNLAND Location and Boundaries 8.1. The landscape type encompasses a number of distinct downland blocks from the Marlborough Downs (1A) and Horton Down (1C) in the west running through to the Lambourn Downs (1B) and Blewbury Downs (1D) in the east. Boundaries are mainly defined by topography and the Upper Chalk geology, and in the north relate to the top of the Scarp (landscape type 5). To the south, the edge of the chalk similarly forms a distinct boundary. Overview The Open Downlands are the remote heart and core of the North Wessex Downs, with the dramatic landscapes created by the underlying chalk rocks being one of the defining features of the AONB. The subtle curves and undulations of the landform are revealed by the uniform clothing of cropped grass or cereals creating a landscape with a simple and elemental quality, accentuated by vast skies. The open, expansive views are punctuated by distinctive beech clumps crowning the downland summits, forming prominent and highly visible landmarks. Sparsely populated, the downlands possess a strong sense remoteness and isolation. Predominantly in arable cultivation these are landscapes of great seasonal variation, with muted browns and greys of the chalk and flinty soils in the ploughed autumn fields, giving way to fresh greens of the emerging crops in winter and spring and sweeping yellows and golds of summer. The characteristic close-cropped springy downland turf of the surviving herb-rich chalk grassland provides an important habitat and this landscape type contains the largest areas of designated chalk grassland in the AONB, with 15 Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). -
Briefing Notes, 3/9/2016
Winchester District Outing to Newbury and the Kennet Valley, Saturday 17th September 1016: Briefing Notes, 3/9/2016 Starting out from Winchester to Beenham: 30 miles, allow one hour. There are, of course, many ways of getting to Beenham: one is to proceed up the A34 as far as Whitchurch, turn off onto the B3400 for Whitchurch and on to Overton, where you turn left onto the B3051 for Kingsclere and continue towards Baughurst and Tadley. At Baughurst you join the A340, taking the second exit on the roundabout, and head towards Aldermaston and Reading. After about 5 miles you join the A4, where you take the third exit, for the A4 towards Reading. After about half a mile the road becomes a dual carriageway, and almost at once – opposite the Comfort Hotel – you turn left for Beenham. Halfway to the village there is a hard left bend followed by a hard right bend. As you come into the village there is a mini-roundabout, where you turn left. Just follow the road round – it makes no difference whether you stay on the main road – Back Lane – or cut through via Stoneyfield (on your left) – you will see the School on your right. You turn left before you reach the school, onto the narrow road towards St Mary’s Farm, and, just beyond, the church. Beenham: 09:15-10:00 a.m . 6 bells, Ground floor ring, tenor 9¾ cwt St Mary’s Church is in Church Lane, Beenham: Church Lane is opposite the School: its post code for SatNavs is RG7 5NN, its OS National Grid reference for map users or GPS devices is SU 590684. -

Historic Landscape Character Areas and Their Special Qualities and Features of Significance
Historic Landscape Character Areas and their special qualities and features of significance Volume 1 Third Edition March 2016 Wyvern Heritage and Landscape Consultancy Emma Rouse, Wyvern Heritage and Landscape Consultancy www.wyvernheritage.co.uk – [email protected] – 01747 870810 March 2016 – Third Edition Summary The North Wessex Downs AONB is one of the most attractive and fascinating landscapes of England and Wales. Its beauty is the result of many centuries of human influence on the countryside and the daily interaction of people with nature. The history of these outstanding landscapes is fundamental to its present‐day appearance and to the importance which society accords it. If these essential qualities are to be retained in the future, as the countryside continues to evolve, it is vital that the heritage of the AONB is understood and valued by those charged with its care and management, and is enjoyed and celebrated by local communities. The North Wessex Downs is an ancient landscape. The archaeology is immensely rich, with many of its monuments ranking among the most impressive in Europe. However, the past is etched in every facet of the landscape – in the fields and woods, tracks and lanes, villages and hamlets – and plays a major part in defining its present‐day character. Despite the importance of individual archaeological and historic sites, the complex story of the North Wessex Downs cannot be fully appreciated without a complementary awareness of the character of the wider historic landscape, its time depth and settlement evolution. This wider character can be broken down into its constituent parts. -

River Lambourn SAC SSSI – Catchment Risk Assessment
Natural England Water Quality Catchment Risk Assessment & Source Apportionment: River Lambourn Natural England Pollution Risk Assessment RIVER LAMBOURN CATCHMENT FINAL DRAFT MAY 2017 © Natural England 2016 1 Natural England Water Quality Catchment Risk Assessment & Source Apportionment: River Lambourn BLANK PAGE 2 Natural England Water Quality Catchment Risk Assessment & Source Apportionment: River Lambourn Westcountry Rivers Limited (the commercial arm of Westcountry Rivers Trust) are working with Natural England to develop a method for catchment-wide pollution risk and source apportionment assessment. The collaborative approach to developing these assessments will act to facilitate the sharing of data, knowledge and local information with catchment stakeholders and Catchment Based Approach (CaBA) Partnerships. The Integrated Catchment Based Approach was developed as a framework by Defra in 2009 for improving the water environment at the catchment scale. After a successful pilot phase in 2011, actions were made for the wider adoption and national implementation of CaBA from 2013. As Rivers Trusts now represent catchments across a large part of England and Wales, with new ones continually forming, they are responsible partner hosts for the majority of local CaBA initiatives around the United Kingdom. Key objectives of CaBA are: to deliver positive and sustained outcomes for the water environment by promoting a better understanding of the environment at a local catchment scale;and to encourage local collaboration and more transparent decision-making when both planning and delivering activities to improve the water environment. CaBA allows local communities, businesses, organisations and other stakeholders to come together to undertake actions or develop projects which incorporate local priorities such as compliance, flood risk management, fisheries and biodiversity.
