  • St. James' Church, Ashmansworth
    ST. JAMES’ CHURCH, ASHMANSWORTH This little church on the Hampshire Downs at the north end of the Winchester Diocese has an intriguing history reaching back into the 10th century. It also has a singular charm as its small white, weatherboard bell tower is sighted above the high banks and hedges of the lane that winds down towards the Bourne Valley. Sadly, the old bells no longer ring out over the scattered village - because they must be re-hung before they can even be chimed. (It has, up to now, seemed unlikely that adequate funds will ever be available for full circle ringing). Indeed, this situation is a part of the dilemma facing this small parish, a dilemma created, strangely enough, by a generous bequest from one of its parishioners, Miss Annie Taylor. This bequest led the Parochial Church Council to call in experts to advise on what might be done to restore and make safe the bell tower, to preserve and improve the remains of the wall paintings as well as to repair the effects of sheer age on the church as a whole; which has inevitably taken place despite the devoted attention of church wardens and parishioners over the years. It needs little imagination to recognise that this survey revealed a call for restoration work with costs far exceeding the value of this bequest. The earliest extant reference to Ashmansworth is found in the Charter of King Athelstan the Victorious (925-940) and it is certain that a Saxon church stood on this site of the present building which itself belongs mainly to the 12th century and at that time was mentioned in the general confirmation of his manors by Edward I.

THIS BOOK IS DEDICATED BY HIS GRACE'S KIND PERMISSION PREFACE may claim in a certain sense to be HAMPSHIREthe premier county of England, since though not quite so ancient a kingdom as Kent or Sussex, it " is, as Grant Allen calls it, the real original nucleus of the British Empire." It is also one of the most interesting of the counties, from the importance in early English history of its charming capital, the architectural value of its Cathedral and three of its other churches, its beautiful combinations of woodland and sea, its possession of more genuine forest than all the rest of England put together, and its chief place in the naval position of England, owing to the two great harbours afforded by its fortunate coast-line. To an editor of Memorials of Old Hampshire the first difficulty, therefore, is clearly of selection. It would not be difficult to imagine another volume of the present size made up only of those subjects that—for one reason or another—I have been obliged to pass over.

  • Conservation Area Appraisal for Ashmansworth(PDF)
    Conservation Area Appraisal Conservation Area Appraisal Ashmansworth An excellent Borough - together we can beAshmansworth even better! Conservation Area Appraisal Introduction The Ashmansworth Conservation Area was designated in 1989 by Hampshire County Council in association with Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council, in recognition of the special architectural and historic interest of the village. Having designated the Conservation Area, the Local Authority has a statutory duty to ensure that those elements that form its particular character or appearance should be preserved or enhanced, especially when considering planning applications. It is therefore necessary to define and analyse those qualities or elements that contribute to, or detract from, the special interest of the area and to assess how they combine to justify its designation as a Conservation Area. Such factors can include: • its historic development, • the contribution of individual or groups of buildings to the streetscape, the spaces that surround them and; • the relationship of the built environment with the natural landscape. They can also include the less tangible senses and experiences, such as noise or smells, which can nevertheless play a key part in forming the distinctive character of an area. The Appraisal takes the form of written text and an Appraisal plan. In both respects every effort has been made to include or analyse those elements key to the special character of the area. Where buildings, structures or features have not been specifically highlighted it does not necessarily follow that they are of no visual or historic value to the Conservation Area. The document is intended to be an overall framework and guide within which decisions can be made on a site-specific basis.
