  • The Idsworth Church Friends Trust 3 AGM – Wednesday 24 April, 2019
    The Idsworth Church Friends Trust 3rd AGM – Wednesday 24th April, 2019 1.Apologies: Dinah Lawson, Jennifer Oatley, Rebecca Probert, Deborah Richards, June Heap, Jill Everett, Tom Everett, Mike Driver, David Uren, Cllr Chris Stanley, Cllr Marge Harvey, Alan Hakim. Attendance: 35 Confirm Minutes of the last meeting (19th April, 2018): These were made available to all Friends via the website. Proposer: Andrew Fisk and Seconder: Simon Hartley 2. Chairman’s Review of the Year: ‘It is incredible to think that, a year ago, we were sitting in the church on the new pew cushions purchased by The Friends and, I am pleased to say, they have proved to make life very much more comfortable for those attending church services, concerts, social events and even AGMs! In April, 2018, Mr Tobit Curteis of the Courthauld Institute was commissioned to inspect the church environment and advise on the condition of the wall paintings. His report was subsequently included in the application to the Heritage Lottery Fund. The last twelve months has been a very busy time for the Friends’ Trust. So what have we achieved during the course of the last year? Well, ten events took place in 2018 for a start: Despite a very hot summer, the weather deluged for our Dark Skies Event in April and we were confined to activities in the church – a great pity as we had a number of families attending and, supported by the team of experts from Clanfield observatory, there was no opportunity to star gaze through their telescopes due to the heavy rain.

  • OV5 Iustory of R
    OV5 iUSTORY OF r StettetyA, & 'Ditfnict Aocal Society PREFACE This paper has been written with the intention of setting down basic facts in the history of Eastleigh as they are known, and of drawing attention to the vast amount of detail still needing to be discovered and recorded. The very name of Eastleigh has its history and, together with all the other place-names in our modem Borough, a long one, with variations in spelling, popularity and expanse of land indicated by the name. Research already carried out by members of the Eastleigh and District Local History Society has been published in a series of Occasional and Special Papers. Reference to these and other publications is made in the text so that more detailed information may be obtained when needed. The reader is encouraged to set himself in the right mood by making sure that he knows the history of his own patch. Who built the house? Why was it so designed? What materials were used and where did they come from? Why was the road so named? What is the nature of the garden soil and how was it composed? Find out the answers to these and other questions and, above all, remember that today’s events are tomorrow’s history. This may inspire you to seek further information or advice and, possibly, to meet others with similar aims. Local History Societies exist for this purpose; they welcome visitors and new members. The Eastleigh and District Local History Society meets on the fourth Thursday of the month, the Botley and Curdridge Society on the last Friday of the month, and the West End Society on the first Wednesday of the month, except in July and August when outside visits are usually organised.

  • Chalton Chalton
    Chalton Chalton 1.0 PARISH Clanfield & Rowlands Castle parishes, formerly a separate parish. 2.0 HUNDRED Finchdean 3.0 NGR 473200 116000 4.0 GEOLOGY Upper Chalk 5.0 SITE CONTEXT (Map 2) Chalton is a valley settlement at 95m AOD. However, the terrain rises sharply to the south (Chalton Down, 144m AOD) and to the east. Windmill Hill is 1km west whilst to the north there is a more gentle climb on to the lower slopes of Holt Down (Queen Elizabeth Country Park). Chalton is arranged around a cross-roads and these provide access to the Downs. The south / north route is South Lane below the cross-roads, North Lane above. North Lane is little more than a track, whilst the road west / east (Chalton Lane, formerly Wicker Lane) is a link to the A3 (T). There has been much rebuilding in Chalton during the C20 and agricultural activity is intensive in an area that is rich in archaeology both in the valley and on the Downs. Chalton and Clanfield parishes were amalgamated in 1932 6.0 PLAN TYPE & DESCRIPTION (Maps 3, 4 & 5) Church & manor house + irregular agglomeration 6.1 Church & manor house The core of the settlement is the C12 parish church and the adjacent building south-west of the church that is now known as The Priory. This latter building was formerly the rectory but upon cessation of this function it was re- named as The Priory in the C20. This is appropriate because the building is C14, C15 in date and is almost certainly associated with the Priory of Nuneaton which held the advowson of Chalton from 1154.

Our churches draw their congregations mainly from outside of their catchment areas. At end of March 2019 there were a total of 197 persons on the electoral rolls of the benefice (Holy Trinity 102, St. Hubert 51, and St. Michael 44). The average congregations attending church is: Holy Trinity 54 + 8 children, St. Hubert 24+2 children and St. Michael 12. Considered to be quite ‘middle-of-the-road Anglican’ in our worship, we have seen growth and change and a pattern of joint services in recent times with our own united benefice communion services shared around our three churches.

Its compilation has followed the CPRE guideline publication ‘Unlocking the Landscape’ with collation of information from residents surveys, government sources, local landowners and other public bodies, carried out mainly during 2011 and the final draft published in mid 2012. The LLCA builds on the 2006 East Hampshire District Landscape Character Assessment. It incorporates a short history of parish settlement and landscape evolution, a detailed classification of local parish landscape types and information obtained from residents, landowners and other public bodies relating to the parish landscape.

Havant History Booklet No. 27 Edited by Ralph Cousins View all booklets, comment, and order on line at: www.hhbkt.com 2 PREFACE Inns and Public Houses An Early History and General View In the Saxon period Tabernae, wooden huts or booths, were built at the roadside and advertised themselves by means of a long pole. An evergreen bush was attached if wine was available together with ale. This custom may have originated from the Romans. Ale and mead were probably brewed and sold on the premises. Monasteries were established after the arrival of Christianity and these were required to provide for travellers with the building of hospices close to the abbey, monastery or where travellers came together. From these establishments, inns and hotels have their roots. During the eighth century houses were set up by the public to provide food and refreshment and were known as Taverns, derived from the Latin taberna.
