'A Ffitt Place for Any Gentleman'?
‘A ffitt place for any Gentleman’? GARDENS, GARDENERS AND GARDENING IN ENGLAND AND WALES, c. 1560-1660 by JILL FRANCIS A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham July 2011 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT This thesis sets out to investigate gardens, gardeners and gardening practices in early modern England, from the mid-sixteenth century when the first horticultural manuals appeared in the English language dedicated solely to the ‘Arte’ of gardening, spanning the following century to its establishment as a subject worthy of scientific and intellectual debate by the Royal Society and a leisure pursuit worthy of the genteel. The inherently ephemeral nature of the activity of gardening has resulted thus far in this important aspect of cultural life being often overlooked by historians, but detailed examination of the early gardening manuals together with evidence gleaned from contemporary gentry manuscript collections, maps, plans and drawings has provided rare insight into both the practicalities of gardening during this period as well as into the aspirations of the early modern gardener. -

Little Budbridge, Budbridge Lane, Merstone, Isle Of
m LITTLE BUDBRIDGE, BUDBRIDGE LANE, MERSTONE, ISLE OF WIGHT PO30 3DH GUIDE PRICE £1,545,000 A beautifully restored, 5 bedroom period country house, occupying grounds about 7.5 acres in a quiet yet accessible rural location. Restored to an exceptional standard, this small manor house is constructed largely of local stone elevations beneath hand-made clay peg tiled roofs. It is Grade II listed with origins in the 13th Century, and with a date stone from 1731. Included are the neighbouring barns and outbuildings which have consent for several holiday letting units. After a period of gentle decline the property was virtually derelict in 2013 and in 2013-15 it underwent a programme of complete renovation, extension, improvement and under the supervision of the conservation team of the Local Authority. Modern high-quality kitchen and bathroom fittings by 'Porcelanosa' have been installed to sympathetically compliment the many original period features. The finest original materials and craftsman techniques have been used and finished to a high standard. The house enjoys an elevated position within about 7.5 acres of grounds with extensive vistas across the beautiful surrounding countryside of the Arreton Valley to downland beyond. The gardens have been terraced, landscaped and enclosed in new traditional wrought-iron parkland fencing, with matching entrance gates, beyond which are lakes and a grass tennis court. The property is set beside a quiet "no through" lane within a picturesque rural location, yet is easily accessible to Newport, (4 miles) with mainland ferry links to Portsmouth 6.5 miles away at Fishbourne. Ryde School is also easily accessible about 8 miles away. -
Seaview Conservation Area Character Appraisal
Directorate of Regeneration Interim Director Bernadette Marjoram Seaview Conservation Area Appraisal Adopted 3 September 2007 Conservation & Design Planning Services 01983 823552 [email protected] www.iwight.com/conservation Contents Introduction 1 Seaview Conservation Area Revision Appraisal Area 1 ’The Historic Core’ 2 - 6 Area 2 ‘The Outskirts’ 7 – 9 Area 3 ‘Residential’ 10 - 12 www.iwight.com/conservation Adopted 3 September 2007 Seaview Conservation Area Appraisal Introduction Local Planning Authorities have a duty under The Planning (Listed Buildings & Conservation Areas) Act 1990 to designate as conservation areas any areas considered to be of special architectural or historic interest, the character or appearance of which it is desirable to protect or enhance. The Character Area boundaries are inevitably subjective in complex environments, and are based not only on architectural, land-use or historic attributes, but on the dynamic experience of walking or driving through an area. Map based boundaries are taken into consideration, but sensational qualities such as the awareness of enclosure or openness and degrees of noise and activity are also important in defining edges to Character Areas and the Conservation Area. In coastal areas, the boundaries may follow the line of the mean low water mark which is the extent of the jurisdiction of the Council and so is used for consistency. The legislation also makes provision for schemes to enhance the area, so the inclusion of areas of potential allows for schemes to be put forward which will improve the Area in keeping with its own individual character, and to the same high standard. Designation does not mean that development cannot take place within the proposed Conservation Area or within its setting. -
OARISBROOKE, I.W. I55
HANTS FIELD CLUB AND AROH/EOLOOICAL 80CIETY. OARISBROOKE, I.W. i55 CARISBROOKE CHURCH AND PRIORY. BY DR. J. GROVES. The picturesqueness and scenic beauty of Carisbrooke—due in large measure to the denudation of the chalk, which commenced long before the separation of this area from the mainland—contribute far less to render it the glory of the Isle of Wight than do its historic associations and remains. These probably constitute the chief attraction of the place to the educated visitors who come to it in increasing numbers year by year, not only from every part of Great Britain and Ireland, but also from the continent of Europe and other quarters of the earth. The responsibility of all who are inhabitants of the Isle of Wight, and more particularly of those who reside in the parish of Carisbrooke is very great, since they are the custodians and trustees of these historic monuments for the whole of the civilised world. The Carisbrooke of mediaeval times is gone forever and its traces cannot be recovered. Imagination must be left to picture the metropolis of the Isle of Wight in those days with its market and its fair, its bullring, its maypole and its timbered houses standing on the slopes of the valley in the depths of which the silvery chalk stream meandered, with its mills and mill-ponds, and, on the heights, the wooded hills crowned, to the south by the noble castle and, to the north, by the stately church and priory. All that can be done is to see that no further loss is incurred. -
REAPPRAISAL of a COLLARED URN and OTHER POTTERY from BARROW 8, ASHEY DOWN, ISLE of WIGHT by DAVID J
REAPPRAISAL OF A COLLARED URN AND OTHER POTTERY FROM BARROW 8, ASHEY DOWN, ISLE OF WIGHT By DAVID J. TOMALIN INTRODUCTION IN 1969, excavations on Ashey Down revealed some 240 potsherds lying on the buried land surface beneath Barrow 8 and scattered in and beyond the surrounding ditch. Forty-six sherds are of similar fabric and 9 bear impressed decoration which has been described as 'short, wide, whipped, cord, maggots'. At first sight these sherds resemble some Late Neolithic pottery from beneath two other Island round barrows at Niton and Arreton Down (Dunning 1932, 198-210; Alexander and Ozanne i960, 276-281). In the Ashey Down excavation report in these Proceedings (Drewett 1972) the assemblage is reported as Neolithic and described as probably representing simple bag-shaped bowls. In 1973 the writer examined the Ashey Down material while preparing a catalogue at Carisbrooke Castle Museum. This article seeks to record new information showing that at present there is little evidence for Neolithic occupation on Ashey Down. THE BRONZE AGE POTTERY (FIG. 1) In the excavation report 12 sherds illustrate the pre-barrow material from the site and are conveniendy numbered 1-12 (Drewett, Fig. 25). In this article they are prefixed D. Most important are sherds D 1-9 which are here recognised as a single vessel, Fig. 1, no. 1, comprising some 46 fragments. The critical sherds are D5 (upside-down) and D 7, both of which form the overhanging portion of a collar. Breaks in the sherds had occurred flush with the overhang and these details seem to have been misinterpreted in the original study, apparently for a rather unusual reason. -

HEAP for Isle of Wight Rural Settlement
Isle of Wight Parks, Gardens & Other Designed Landscapes Historic Environment Action Plan Isle of Wight Gardens Trust: March 2015 2 Foreword The Isle of Wight landscape is recognised as a source of inspiration for the picturesque movement in tourism, art, literature and taste from the late 18th century but the particular significance of designed landscapes (parks and gardens) in this cultural movement is perhaps less widely appreciated. Evidence for ‘picturesque gardens’ still survives on the ground, particularly in the Undercliff. There is also evidence for many other types of designed landscapes including early gardens, landscape parks, 19th century town and suburban gardens and gardens of more recent date. In the 19th century the variety of the Island’s topography and the richness of its scenery, ranging from gentle cultivated landscapes to the picturesque and the sublime with views over both land and sea, resulted in the Isle of Wight being referred to as the ‘Garden of England’ or ‘Garden Isle’. Designed landscapes of all types have played a significant part in shaping the Island’s overall landscape character to the present day even where surviving design elements are fragmentary. Equally, it can be seen that various natural components of the Island’s landscape, in particular downland and coastal scenery, have been key influences on many of the designed landscapes which will be explored in this Historic Environment Action Plan (HEAP). It is therefore fitting that the HEAP is being prepared by the Isle of Wight Gardens Trust as part of the East Wight Landscape Partnership’s Down to the Coast Project, particularly since well over half of all the designed landscapes recorded on the Gardens Trust database fall within or adjacent to the project area. -
