[email protected] +44(0)23 9284 2482 1 Meadowlands in time: Re-envisioning the lost meadows of the Rother valley, West Sussex, UK Abstract Historically, meadows provided an essential crop of hay and common grazing in a delicately managed sustainable system in harmony with their environment and were of vital importance to the agricultural cycle of farming communities. Using archival and remotely sensed data, this paper provides a speculative re-construction of a former floodplain water management system and examines the changing fortunes of the floodplain meadows of the Rother valley, West Sussex, revealing the process of change in both the physical and cultural landscape. The inevitable decline of the floodplain meadows of the Rother was part of a nationwide transformation brought about by the introduction of new farming practices operating in a fast- changing tenurial landscape, dominated by th e growth of landed estates where commoners ’ rights were viewed with growing contempt. Today, the current vista of the Rother reveals only remnants of the past landscape where marginal habitats, riparian fringes and meadows have made way for a monoculture of permanent pasture of poor conservation value, supporting low biodiversity and offering little to mitigate against flood risk and poor water quality.

Being aligned north-south, it crosses all the main geologies of West Sussex from the greensand ridges, through Wealden river valleys and heathlands, to the high chalk downland and the coastal plain. In so doing it offers a great variety of scenery, flora and fauna. The trail logo reflects this by depicting the South Downs, the River Rother and Chichester Harbour. It can be walked energetically in three days, bearing in mind that the total ‘climb’ is around 650 metres/2,000 feet. The maps divide it into six sections, which although unequal in distance, break the route into stages that allow the possible use of public transport. There is a good choice of accommodation and restaurants in Liphook, Midhurst and Chichester, elsewhere there is a smattering of pubs and B&Bs – although the northern section is a little sparse in that respect.

  • Midhurst Sense of Place
    Midhurst Sense of Place Produced as part of the Midhurst Vision by the Sense of Place Working Group September 2009 Cover image courtesy of Michael Chevis www.michaelchevis.com Contents 5 Foreword 6 Introduction 9 Context 12 Sense of Place Aims 13 Sense of Place Process 15 Activity 17 Physical Setting 20 Meaning 23 Sense of Place Definition 26 Place Making 31 Place Reading 36 Place Marketing 38 Potential Actions and Projects 39 Next Steps 40 Summary 42 Acknowledgements 43 Appendix 44 Key Design Principles 50 Terms of Reference 5 Foreword Like may towns throughout the UK, Midhurst has a range of unique qualities. Yet as a result of social and economic change it faces competition from neighbouring destinations like Chichester, Petersfield, Haselmere and Guildford. Chichester District Council recognised this problem and through a series of projects (aimed at supporting the local economy), engaged with the community to help identify key areas of development and regeneration. Whilst residents may have strong emotional links to their town or village, it is becoming increasingly important to understand and reveal the innate qualities and character of a place to attract visitors and compete with other towns in their region. However, it may be difficult to express what defines a ‘place’, but it is important to do so, to ensure that any support given by way of physical improvement or economic development, is appropriate and does not lead to the loss of individuality and regional identity. Understanding that Midhurst’s future prosperity is dependent on finding a way to manage change whilst maintaining a genuine and authentic sense of place, it became clear that a process was required to capture and articulate these unique aspects to help develop plans for the future.

  • Trotton with Chithurst Parish Council to the LGCBE Draft Recommendations for Chichester District
    “Steps”, Trotton, Nr Petersfield, West Sussex, GU31 5JS Response by Trotton with Chithurst Parish Council to the LGCBE Draft Recommendations for Chichester District Trotton with Chithurst Parish Council considered the draft recommendations at a meeting held on Wednesday 14th. September 2016. We are delighted that the proposal to move Trotton from Harting ward was rejected. However, we continue to have grave concerns regarding the proposal to move Elsted and Treyford Parish from Harting ward to Midhurst ward. Our response to the initial consultation included four points relating directly to Elsted parish, and we would repeat and strengthen these here: 1. Trotton no longer has a school, shop, village green, sports ground, village hall or public house and must rely on its neighbours' facilities. Our population centre (albeit a small one) is situated to the south of our parish, about a mile from the public house at Lower Elsted, which hosts events for Trotton residents each month. The Village hall and sports ground at Elsted give a good view across Trotton and are often used by Trotton residents. Trotton and Elsted Parishes are similar in size and nature and the two Parish councils have recently been exploring options for closer working, including the potential for a Common Parish Council. We have strong links to Elsted, which in turn has strong links with Harting Parish. 2. Like our neighbours in Elsted parish, Trotton also has strong links to its larger neighbour Rogate as the two parishes share a Rector across the four churches which make up the United Benefice. Given the small size and sparse facilities of our parish, we also value our links with Rogate for its school and for allowing us to combine with them for celebrations such as the recent Queen’s birthday.

    Chichester District Council THE COUNCIL 24 July 2018 Selsey and Midhurst Visions 1. Contacts Report Author: Tania Murphy – Divisional Manager Place Telephone: 01243 534701 E-mail: [email protected] Cabinet Member: Tony Dignum – Leader of the Council Telephone: 01243 538585 E-mail: [email protected] 2. Recommendation That the Council approves the release of £23,000 from general fund reserves to support the Selsey and Midhurst Vision projects and approves the Project Initiation Documents attached to this agenda report. 3. Background 3.1 The Cabinet agreed in January 2018, as part of the revised Corporate Plan for the authority, to approve a number of projects for development. Two of these projects were the Midhurst and Selsey Visions. 3.2 Initial Project Proposal Documents for both Visions were considered at the Cabinet meeting in January. Since this time further work has been undertaken to progress the visions, including the production of the Project Initiation Document (PID) (see Appendices 1 and 2) for each of the Visions. The PIDs set out in more detail how the anticipated budget of £10,500 and £12,500 for Selsey and Midhurst respectively will be allocated. 3.3 In order to authorise the budgets for these projects and to ensure that works can progress over the summer months for both Visions, it is requested that the Council approves the funds of £10,500 for Selsey and £12,500 for Midhurst. Ordinarily PIDs and funding of up to £100,000 would be approved by Cabinet. However, as the Cabinet does not meet again until September, the Council is asked to approve these PIDs and the necessary funding under the urgency provision in the constitution, so as to enable work to progress over the summer.

  • History Walk
    History Walk A walk through over 2000 years of local history and see some of the area’s most magnificent scenic views. This walk: • is 4.8-6.5 kilometres (3-4 miles) long • takes about 2.5-3.5 hours • has no steep hills and is easy walking • is unsuitable for a push chair • has no stiles on the shorter route and two kissing gates on the longer route • can be slippery when wet • uses OS map 197 • has a café at the start and a pub and café with toilets half way round When walking always follow the countryside code. www.countrysideaccess.gov.uk A short background to Pulborough and its history: The landscape features that have dominated the history and development of the Pulborough area are the river and floodplain, the greensand ridge that runs east-west through Pulborough village and the fertile area to the north of the greensand ridge. From left: The Old Rectory; Cattle in brooks; Lower Street This has generated the development of Pulborough Village as the heart of the area, the hamlets of Nutbourne, Mare Hill and Codmore Hill around the greensand ridge and isolated agricultural buildings to the north of the greensand ridge. The Pulborough area closer to the river Arun has been inhabited since very early times due to the river providing fish and a waterway for trade and improving the fertility of the flood plain to the south. Pulborough is a “linear village”, that is a long straggle of houses under the greensand ridge that were served by wells that drained out of the greensand at this level.
