Titchfield lies between Southampton and Portsmouth, about two'miles from the shores of the Solent, and is the largest civil parish in Hampshire, 17,500 acres in extent. 'Few country towns have a history more varied or of greater interest. The Meonwara occupied the valley which extends from the mouth of the Meon or Titchfield River, two miles below the town, northward as far as East Meon. The discovery of flint weapons and implements shows that the site of Titchfield was occupied long before the Roman invasion, and its river served as a means of, com- munication with the inhabitants of the valley. In Domesday Book Ticefelle, i.e., the manor of Titchfield, is described as a berewick or village belonging to Meonstoke and held by the King, as it had been in the time of Edward the Confessor.

AND DERBY 1906 [All Rights Reserved} TO THE MOST NOBLE The Duke of Wellington, k.g. THIS BOOK IS DEDICATED BY HIS GRACE'S KIND PERMISSION PREFACE may claim in a certain sense to be HAMPSHIREthe premier county of England, since though not quite so ancient a kingdom as Kent or Sussex, it " is, as Grant Allen calls it, the real original nucleus of the British Empire." It is also one of the most interesting of the counties, from the importance in early English history of its charming capital, the architectural value of its Cathedral and three of its other churches, its beautiful combinations of woodland and sea, its possession of more genuine forest than all the rest of England put together, and its chief place in the naval position of England, owing to the two great harbours afforded by its fortunate coast-line. To an editor of Memorials of Old Hampshire the first difficulty, therefore, is clearly of selection. It would not be difficult to imagine another volume of the present size made up only of those subjects that—for one reason or another—I have been obliged to pass over.

A mortality rate of somewhere between a third and half of the population is generally agreed. The consequences of this horrifying disaster were to lead to profound long-term changes in the economic and societal order of the medieval West. It is hardly surprising, therefore, that this 1348–9 epidemic has dominated discussion of the later medieval plague pandemic. Whilst the broad outlines and much local detail are firmly in place, the nature and effect of the Black Death remain the focus of lively debate.

  • New Life for the Saxon Church at Corhampton
    Corhampton Church Cover:Layout 1 15/1/14 10:21 Page 1 Please help preserve this gem of a church and our Saxon heritage by donating online at https://localgiving.com/charity/corhamptonchurch £2 Please help preserve this gem of a church and our Saxon heritage by donating online at https://localgiving.com/charity/corhamptonchurch £2 The Church with no name he church at Corhampton on the west bank of the River Meon was built in 1020 AD, in a royal estate of the West Saxons and during the reign of Canute, King of England (1016-1035). Canute's capital was in Winchester 10 miles to the west Tacross the South Downs. The Church, a grade 1 listed building, has remained largely unchanged as a centre for the community and of Christian worship for nearly 1000 years. The church is remarkable for the fact that it is one of a handful of churches not having a titular dedication e.g. the name of a saint. Churches of the late Saxon era (there were about twenty in the Meon Valley) were built under the patronage of the lord of the local Manor. This lord would have the right to choose to whom the church would be dedicated. As far as is known the church at Corhampton has never had such a dedication.1 The Origin of the name ‘Corhampton’ ede, a monk from Northumbria, wrote in the 8th century about the Provincia Meanwarorum, the Province of the Meonwara. The Meonwara2 were the ‘people of the Meon’. Bede refers to the hamlet of Cornhampton referring to the settlement on the west bank of the Meon in which corn was milled and traded.

  • The Rise and Fall of the House of York: Chronology of Key Events
    The Rise and Fall of the House of York: Chronology of Key Events In 1128, Geoffrey of Anjou married Matilda, daughter and heiress of King Henry I of England, thereby establishing the Angevin ("of Anjou") royal dynasty in England. This long-enduring dynasty later became known as the House of Plantagenet based on a nickname for Geoffrey, who seems to have used the plant planta genista as an emblem and worn sprigs of it on his hat. The Plantagenet dynasty would come to a violent end in 1485, after being wracked for decades by an internecine power struggle later dubbed "the Wars of the Roses": a dispute for the throne among rival descendants of King Edward III. During that time, two warring branches of the Plantagenet family, the House of Lancaster and the House of York, grappled ferociously for power. The following chronology outlines the entirety of the period of conflict, beginning with usurpation of King Richard II by the House of Lancaster in the late 14th century; the subsequent possession of the throne by the three kings of the House of Lancaster (Henry IV, Henry V, and Henry VI); the overthrow of the Lancastrians by the House of York, which also produced three kings (Edward IV, Edward V, and Richard III); and the final destruction of the Plantagenets in 1485 by the usurping Tudor dynasty. This chronology focuses in detail on the House of York, particularly Richard III and his immediate family. June 8, 1376 On this date, Edward "the Black Prince," eldest son of the reigning Edward III, dies, survived by only one of his legitimate children: his son Richard.

  • Beaulieu, Buckler's Hard and Exbury
    Beaulieu, Buckler’s Hard and Exbury Conservation Area Character Appraisals Beaulieu, Buckler’s Hard and Exbury About the character appraisals The landscape of the New Forest National Park is unique. It is a living working remnant of medieval England with a sense of continuity, tradition and history. It is not the survival of just one special quality but a whole range of features that bring a sense of continuity and integrity. Where there are areas of special historic and architectural interest the Authority has the opportunity to designate these as conservation areas. Every area has its own distinctive character made up from topography, historic development, current uses and features, buildings, paths and lanes, hedges, trees, place names. Understanding and appreciating an area’s character, including its social and economic background, and the way these factors have shaped the place should be the starting point for both its management and its future. This is the purpose of this document. Each character appraisal considers: The location and setting of the area Historic development The character of the area in detail Building materials and details The contribution of the natural environment This document is for: Anyone who is interested in finding out about the areas Anyone proposing to carry out work in the areas Organisations responsible for any aspect of management of the areas Our partner organisations, who help deliver National Park purposes through their work Members and staff of the National Park Authority How to contact us We would welcome your views and comments on this document and any other matter affecting the conservation areas.

  • The GREAT BARN at TITCHFIELD
    Titchfield Festival Theatre The Great Barn, Mill Lane, Titchfield Introduction Commonly, the Great Barn at Titchfield has been referred to as the Tithe Barn but the leading expert on wooden framed buildings in Hampshire, Edward Roberts, is unequivocal that it is a monastic Manorial Barn, and the term ‘Tithe’ is a misnomer, a view supported by Aston in his 1993 book, Monasteries. There does not seem to be much difference, practically or technically, between ‘Manorial’ and’ Tithe’, with reference to barns, as they both refer to the storage of food provisions, usually quoted as corn, acquired from local land. In the instance of the barn of Titchfield Abbey, the corn would come from both manorial demesnes and tenants. In consequence, for this monograph, the term ‘Great Barn’ is used. The building of such a large and magnificent structure, by a relatively small and poor monastery, at a time when the ravages of the Black Death, and subsequent plagues, had not been overcome, leads one to question whether there is some more important reason for the project. That question is explored, and the facts associated with the Great Barn are analysed, in the pages that follow. Aerial views, from satellite cameras, are shown below.
