Happy Easter! At the beginning of April there is Good News in the life of the Church. Not only are we celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ once more, also here in the MidTest benefice we have reopened the churches for public worship. Distinct from 2020’s on-line Easter celebration, this year we are able to worship together in church. As you would expect, strict procedures will be in place to protect public health in church. In particular it will be necessary to make a booking if you want to come to church on Easter Sunday – please contact one of your local churchwardens for more details, and of course, hand sanitiser and masks and distanced seating will be required. The national public health situation gives us cause for hope, as the rollout of vaccinations continues at pace and prevalence of the virus continues to decline. It seems appropriate, as we celebrate Easter, to have such a cause for hope. However, we would do well to reflect on Jesus’ followers’ reaction to the news of the resurrection. At first, they were confused and unsure – some were disbelieving and others responded by hiding indoors in fear. Our response to the good news on public health should be equally cautious. This Easter, there is Good News. This Easter we have reason for hope. This Easter we can look forward to new future and a changed world. Yet we need to recognise the cost that has been paid for this Good News, the pain and suffering that that has brought it about, and the need to ensure that it is Good News for all people. Happy Easter.

  • The Middleton Estate

    The Middleton Estate

    WELCOME TO THE MIDDLETON ESTATE Dear Angler, Welcome to the Middleton Estate! By now I hope you are settled and are relaxing with a cup of coffee. Here is a summary of the fishing and what to expect; have a lovely day. THE RIVER TEST The River Test has a total length of 40 miles and flows through the Hampshire downlands from its source near Overton, 6 miles to the west of Basingstoke, to the sea at the head of Southampton Water. The river rises in the village of Ashe, and flows west through the villages of Overton, Laverstoke, and the town of Whitchurch, before joining with the Bourne Rivulet at Testbourne and turning into a more southerly direction. It then flows through the villages of Longparish and Middleton to Wherwell and Chilbolton, where the Rivers Dever and Anton contribute to the flow. From Chilbolton the river flows through the villages of Leckford, Longstock, Stockbridge and Houghton to Mottisfont and Kimbridge, where the River Dun joins the flow. From here the village of Timsbury is passed, then through the grounds of Roke Manor before reaching the town of Romsey. On the western edge of Romsey, Sadler's Mill, an 18th Century watermill, sits astride the River Test. South of Romsey, the river flows past the country house of Broadlands, past Nursling that was once the site of a Roman bridge, and between Totton and Redbridge. Here the river is joined by the River Blackwater and soon becomes tidal, widening out into a considerable estuary that is lined on its northern bank by the container terminals and quays of the Port of Southampton.

    07 Cunliffe 1686 13/11/09 13:48 Page 161 ALBERT RECKITT ARCHAEOLOGICAL LECTURE Continuity and Change in a Wessex Landscape BARRY CUNLIFFE Fellow of the Academy THE WESSEX LANDSCAPE with which we are concerned is an area of some 450 sq km of chalkland situated in the centre of the chalk uplands of southern Britain (Fig. 1). Its central position gives it a special character. It is, above all, a route node where the east–west ridgeways from the North Downs, the South Downs, Cranborne Chase and the Marlborough Downs converge with the north–south river routes, the Avon and the Test, which provide access, through the forests and heathlands of the Hampshire Basin, to the waters of the Solent beyond. But there is an ambivalence about the region. While open to influences from all direc- tions, this very openness endowed it with a strategic significance well understood by those who, in the past, wished to control the movements of peoples and commodities. As we will argue below, the region became a frontier zone for much of the latter part of the first millennium BC, dividing east from west. This block of downland was chosen for detailed study partly because of its commanding position in the landscape of central southern Britain but also because previous archaeological activity has provided an exten- sive database invaluable in developing a detailed research strategy. Most notable among the earlier work were the pre-war excavations of the Cunningtons and J. F. S. Stone focusing on Bronze Age and Iron Age settlements in eastern Wiltshire and the campaign of hillfort excavations Read at the Academy 23 October 2008.
