    Policy Unit 5C10 Netley Castle to Weston Point Summary Description of Policy Unit

    Policy Unit 5C10 Netley Castle to Weston Point Summary description of Policy Unit The shoreline between Weston Point and Netley Abbey is undefended and managed by the Local Authority. The tidal floodplain is restricted due to topography, with residential and commercial properties located on the higher ground, but the flood risk area broadens towards Weston. The foreshore and open space are important recreational amenities; part of the open space is overlying a former landfill site. The sediment transport is from east to west, being fed by relatively low rates of erosion from the adjacent low cliffs. Netley Abbey and Netley Castle are key heritage monuments along with Conservation Area. Inter-tidal habitats of International, European and national nature conservation importance, and inland areas provide high tide roost sites and support the adjacent and nearby SPA/Ramsar sites. This frontage has been assessed in the draft River Itchen, Weston Shore, Netley and Hamble Coastal Defence Strategy, which has recommended a HTL policy for each epoch. Final policy options SMP1 Ref NET1 Hold the Line Epoch 1 Epoch 2 Epoch 3 From Present Day Medium Term Long Term (up to 2025) (2025 to 2055) (2055 to 2105) Hold the Line Hold the Line Hold the Line Summary of ra tionale behind final policy options The final policy options are taken from and consistent with the draft River Itchen, Weston Shore, Netley and Hamble Coastal Defence Strategy. The shoreline between Netley Abbey and Weston Point has no defence structures and historically has not needed beach management intervention from the local authority. The increasing coastal flood and erosion risks over the medium to long-term may however, necessitate beach management and replenishment activities to maintain the recreational beach and to prevent the erosion of the open space and underlying former landfill site.

    CDAS – Chairman's Monthly Letter – March 2020 Fieldwork We Still Plan to Do the Geophysical Survey at Fishbourne Once

    CDAS – Chairman’s Monthly Letter – March 2020 Fieldwork We still plan to do the geophysical survey at Fishbourne once the weather improves and the field starts to dry out. Coastal Monitoring Following the visit to Medmerry West in January we made a visit to Medmerry East. Recent storms had made a big change to the landscape. As on our last visit to the west side it was possible to walk across the breach at low tide. Some more of the Coastguard station has been exposed. However one corner has now disappeared. It was good that Hugh was able to create the 3D Model when he did. We found what looks like a large fish trap with two sets of posts running in a V shape, each arm being about 25 metres long. The woven hurdles were clearly visible. Peter Murphy took a sample of the timber in case there is an opportunity for radiocarbon dating. We plan to return to the site in March to draw and record the structure. When we have decided on a date for this work I will let Members know. Condition Assessment – Thorney Island The annual Condition Assessment of the WW2 sites on Thorney Island will be on Tuesday 10th March, meeting at 09:30 at the junction of Thorney Road and Thornham Lane (SU757049). If you would like to join us and want to bring a car onto the base you need to tell us in advance, so please email the make, model, colour and registration number of your car to [email protected] by Friday 6 March.
  • Tonbridge Castle and Its Lords

    Tonbridge Castle and Its Lords

    Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 16 1886 TONBRIDGE OASTLE AND ITS LORDS. BY J. F. WADMORE, A.R.I.B.A. ALTHOUGH we may gain much, useful information from Lambard, Hasted, Furley, and others, who have written on this subject, yet I venture to think that there are historical points and features in connection with this building, and the remarkable mound within it, which will be found fresh and interesting. I propose therefore to give an account of the mound and castle, as far as may be from pre-historic times, in connection with the Lords of the Castle and its successive owners. THE MOUND. Some years since, Dr. Fleming, who then resided at the castle, discovered on the mound a coin of Con- stantine, minted at Treves. Few will be disposed to dispute the inference, that the mound existed pre- viously to the coins resting upon it. We must not, however, hastily assume that the mound is of Roman origin, either as regards date or construction. The numerous earthworks and camps which are even now to be found scattered over the British islands are mainly of pre-historic date, although some mounds may be considered Saxon, and others Danish. Many are even now familiarly spoken of as Caesar's or Vespa- sian's camps, like those at East Hampstead (Berks), Folkestone, Amesbury, and Bensbury at Wimbledon. Yet these are in no case to be confounded with Roman TONBEIDGHE CASTLE AND ITS LORDS. 13 camps, which in the times of the Consulate were always square, although under the Emperors both square and oblong shapes were used.* These British camps or burys are of all shapes and sizes, taking their form and configuration from the hill-tops on which they were generally placed.

  • The Rees and Carrington Extracts

    The Rees and Carrington Extracts

    THE REES AND CARRINGTON EXTRACTS CUMULATIVE INDEX – PEOPLE, PLACES AND THINGS – TO 1936 (INCLUSIVE) This index has been compiled straight from the text of the ‘Extracts’ (from January 1914 onwards, these include the ‘Rees Extracts’. – in the Index we have differentiated between them by using the same date conventions as in the text – black date for Carrington, Red date for Rees). In listing the movements, particularly of Kipling and his family, it is not always clear when who went where and when. Thus, “R. to Academy dinner” clearly refers to Kipling himself going alone to the dinner (as, indeed would have been the case – it was, in the 1890s, a men-only affair). But “Amusing dinner, Mr. Rhodes’s” probably refers to both of them going, and has been included as an entry under both Kipling, Caroline, and Kipling, Rudyard. There are many other similar events. And there are entries recording that, e.g., “Mrs. Kipling leaves”, without any indication of when she had come – but if it’s not in the ‘Extracts’ (though it may well have been in the original diaries) then, of course, it has not been possible to index it. The date given is the date of the diary entry which is not always the date of the event. We would also emphasise that the index does not necessarily give a complete record of who the Kiplings met, where they met them and what they did. It’s only an index of what remains of Carrie’s diaries, as recorded by Carrington and Rees. (We know a lot more about those people, places and things from, for example, Kipling’s published correspondence – but if they’re not in the diary extracts, then they won’t be found in this index.) Another factor is that both Carrington and Rees quite often mentions a name without further explanation or identification.

    Coplestone Warre Bampfylde. New Perspectives (Taunton, 6-8 Nov 20)

    Coplestone Warre Bampfylde. New Perspectives (Taunton, 6-8 Nov 20) Hestercombe House & Gardens, Taunton, Somerset, UK, Nov 6–08, 2020 Deadline: Jun 15, 2020 Bill Balaskas Coplestone Warre Bampfylde (1720 – 1791) constitutes one of the most distinct, yet largely over- looked cultural figures of 18th-century Britain. As an artist, architect and landscape designer, he epitomised the qualities of a polymath who did not hesitate to put his knowledge and vision into practice. This major international conference aims to shed new light on Bampfylde’s multifaceted work and legacy, on the 300th anniversary of his birth. The conference will take place at Hestercombe House and Gardens, in Somerset – a place of great importance for Bampfylde’s life and diverse practice. After inheriting Hestercombe in 1750, Bampfylde designed an impressive landscape garden to the north of the House, which comple- ments another three period gardens, including a world-famous Edwardian garden designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens and Gertrude Jekyll. Inspired by this unique historical setting, the conference invites papers from art historians, archi- tects, landscape designers, cultural theorists, curators and artists, which look into the different areas of activity that define Bampfylde’s creative life – as painter, architect, engineer and garden designer. At the same time, we welcome papers that explore other aspects of Bampfylde’s life, which could illuminate the wider historical context of his work. Relevant subjects may include his role as colonel in the Somersetshire militia; his relation to the multifaceted political, social and cul- tural developments of the 18th century; and his extensive personal networks. Finally, a distinct section of the conference will focus on the history of the Hestercombe estate, from its role during the two World Wars to its contemporary art programme since 2014.
