River Meon at Manor Farm, Exton
River Meon at Manor Farm, Exton An advisory visit carried out by the Wild Trout Trust – May 2012 1 1. Introduction This report is the output of a Wild Trout Trust advisory visit undertaken on a 0.5-km stretch of the River Meon at Manor Farm, Exton, Hampshire. The river is managed by Mr. Simon Martin and is occasionally let for paying day rods via an agent. The request for the visit was made by Mr. Martin, who is keen to explore options for managing the river. Comments in this report are based on observations on the day of the site visit and discussions with Mr. Martin. Throughout the report, normal convention is followed with respect to bank identification i.e. banks are designated Left Bank (LB) or Right Bank (RB) whilst looking downstream. Upstream boundary SU617212 Downstream boundary SU613208 River Meon, Manor Farm 2 2. Catchment overview The River Meon rises from the Hampshire chalk aquifer near the village of East Meon and flows south for approximately 37km before entering the sea at Hill Head. The river enjoys a steep gradient for a chalk river, falling approximately 120m from source to sea. The middle and upper reaches of the river flow over deposits of Lower Chalk, which is less permeable than the Upper Chalk geology predominantly found in the rest of East Hampshire. As a result, the Meon tends to have a greater flow range compared to other southern chalk streams. At Exton (the location of this visit) the river is flowing over chalk, but further downstream (near Soberton) there is a significant change in geology to deposited material, principally London Clay and Reading Sand. -

See Principles on main webpage. River, villages, views, prehistoric site, Saxon churches, pubs In Brief This is a great Hampshire walk showing the best of the county in two different aspects. One is the sweeping high landscape with distant views culminating at Old Winchester Hill Fort. The other aspect is the gentle chalk stream of the River Meon as it meanders through some delightful villages with remarkable churches and memorable inns. This walk was inspired by one from the book of Adventurous Walks . There is a wealth of choice for refreshment in the villages near the end and also in Soberton not far from the start. Note that the only pub in Hambledon may be closed, as it was in July 2012. For information, call 023 9263 2419. There are few nettles to irritate legs Exton but boots are absolutely essential for this walk, preferably to a good ankle Old Win- length. This is because of one stretch chester Hill on the South Downs Way down from Meonstoke the Hill where there is always some mud. -
