We depend on your feedback: [email protected] Public rights are restricted to printing, copying or distributing this document exactly as seen here, complete and without any cutting or editing. See Principles on main webpage. Hills, woodland, views, villages, pubs In Brief This is an unforgettable circular walk between two quiet downland villages. In between them is the escarpment of the South Downs, steep in the north and sloping gently down on the south side. There is a moderate climb at the start but, after that, the gradients are not too taxing. The terrain is mainly woodland but on the way you will be surprised by sudden views. There is an excellent friendly village pub, with good food, in each village. Note that the Unicorn in Heyshott is closed on Monday (for info ring 01730- 813486). The Star and Garter in East Dean has re-opened (as Apr 2019). It's always advisable to check (t heir number is 01243-811318). There are one or two short sections along this walk with nettles or scratchy undergrowth – enough to make shorts uncomfortable. The ground under- foot is generally firm and dry, although possibly in wet conditions the path back to Heyshott at the end might have some muddy patches.

[email protected] (corresponding author) +44(0)23 9284 2472 2 Department of Geography, University of Portsmouth, Portsmouth PO1 3HE, UK. [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.

  • LIVING with LOCKDOWN a Rainbow Village

    LIVING with LOCKDOWN a Rainbow Village

    LIVING WITH LOCKDOWN As we head towards a fourth week of lockdown, we are all trying to adjust to a very different world than any of us could have imagined. The aim of the team in the Parish Council Emergency Group is to support the most vulnerable in our community as best we can through our wonderful volunteers. We hope that you have the details of your local volunteer if you need help. However, if you need support you can contact the Emergency Group on 01730 825201. The team at the Parish Council Emergency Group have also been sharing ideas on how to keep our community together when we can’t get together. Living with the lockdown is challenging for us all and can make us feel frustrated, lonely, and maybe even a bit sad. So here are some thoughts on keeping us together but apart: A Rainbow Village The Congregational Church, on Petersfield Road as you leave the village, would like as many young people as possible to paint or draw a rainbow to be displayed in the windows of the porch for all to see as they go by. Please leave pictures on the floor in the porch or take a photo of your picture and email to [email protected]. Let’s fill our village with rainbows from the young and the not so young. Draw or paint a picture and put it in your window. A Community Work of Art Let’s create a community patchwork quilt to serve as a lasting reminder of these Method: unprecedented times.
