  • South Stoneham South Stoneham Bishops Stoneham
    South Stoneham South Stoneham Bishops Stoneham 1.0 PARISH South Stoneham 2.0 HUNDRED Mainsbridge 3.0 NGR 443990 115420 (parish church) 4.0 GEOLOGY Valley Gravel; Alluvium in Itchen Valley. Much of the former parish is Bracklesham Beds with pockets of Plateau Gravel. 5.0 SITE CONTEXT (Map 2) 5.1 The parish is now divided between West End CP, Hedge End CP, Southampton St Nicholas and Eastleigh. The church and manor house site is within the bounds of Southampton but much of the former South Stoneham parish is in Eastleigh District including the tithing of Eastleigh itself. It is therefore very relevant to this survey area. 5.2 South Stoneham House is at c. 8m AOD and the Church of St Mary, 100m to the south-east, just a little lower. Both stand above two large ponds that can probably be equated with the two fisheries mentioned in the Domesday survey (paragraph 14.1). These are fed by The Monks Brook (east) and the Itchen Navigation passes just to the south (c. 4m AOD). South Stoneham House is now a part of the Southampton University campus which includes an adjoining tower block and accommodation units. To the east and west are C20 housing estates. Areas of woodland are still intact (south-east) and the fisheries, part of the Monks Brook and the banks of the Itchen Navigation provide public open space. 6.0 PLAN TYPE & DESCRIPTION (Maps 3, 4 and 5) Church and manor house 6.1 South Stoneham House was built 1705, probably on the traditional site of the manor house.

Thanks are given to the Test and Itchen Association, CEFAS (the Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science); the Salmon Fisheries of the River Itchen; Riparian Owners, Sparsholt College and the Anglers. E n v i r o n m e n t A g e n c y NATIONAL LIBRARY & INFORMATION SERVICE SOUTHERN REGION Guildbourne House, Chatsworth Road. Worthing. West Sussex BN 11 1LD ENVIRONMENT AGENCY 0 8 3 0 6 7 Hampshire Fisheries Dept. March 1998. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY. • The River Itchen salmon fishery is one of only six remaining in English chalk streams. • Conservation of the salmon stock is essential to protect the bio-diversity and heritage of the Itchen. • This Action Plan identifies factors believed to be causing declining stock levels, and puts forward a costed series of actions to reverse that decline to return to a self-sustaining fishery. • The key limiting factors in freshwater which are preventing a recovery of the Itchen salmon stock are seen to be poor egg survival in gravel impacted by siltation/concretion combined with over exploitation of returning adults. Both of these factors are critically linked to the effects of low flows in the river. • The total returning stock has only been at a level for long term sustainability of the stock and fisheries in four of the last 10 years.

  • A Walk from St Denys Station to Chandlers Ford Station
    A Walk From St Denys station to Chandlers Ford station Start: St Denys Railway Station Finish: Chandlers Ford Railway Station Distance: 6 miles approx. Time: 2-3 hours A walk between St Denys and Chandlers Ford via River Itchen and the Monks Brook with very little road walking. This walk is not suitable for wheelchairs or pushchairs. There are 4 stiles to cross. Take care when crossing any of the roads. Leave St Denys Station on the eastern side, turn right into Adelaide Road and walk to the end and turn left into Priory Road. Follow this until you reach Cobden Bridge (A3035). Cross the road and turn right to cross the bridge on the left hand side, on reaching the other side take the footpath on the left down the slope into Cobden Meadows. Follow this path all the way through Riverside Park, keeping the river on your left. When you reach a road (Woodmill Lane) cross over and continue along the path with the river on your left and the pitch and putt course on your right. Eventually you will emerge at an old stone bridge just before the Mansbridge Road, turn left, crossing the river on the bridge, almost immediately turn left along a path away from the road and follow this - there is an open space and children's playground on the left. The path becomes a pavement and then a path again as it enters woodland with houses on the right. Just before you reach a bridge over a brook, turn right and follow the path through woodland, keeping in the same northerly direction.
