  • The Hammer Bottom Hike Supporting Notes
    THE HAMMER BOTTOM HIKE SUPPORTING NOTES 1 INTRODUCTION This document is merely a background to the places in and around our event. It is not designed to be taken with you on the day (there will be some Route Notes for that). It just attempts to provide some hopefully interesting insights into the places you will pass through and near. The order is for people doing the whole circular walk from Haslemere in an anticlockwise direction. The sections of the document are shown below, together with the distance covered from the start. I hope you enjoy it; you should learn a lot. I did !! It’s probably best to read it well before the event, to whet your appetite, encourage your money raising activities and galvanise your training regime. You can of course read it post-event to remind you of the day. However, I would not recommend using it on September 5th. 2 HASLEMERE - THE EARLY YEARS Mile 0 3 THE GREENSAND WAY 0 to 1.4 Miles 4 MISS JAMES 2.4 to 4.3 Miles 5 CONAN DOYLE 4.4 Miles 6 HINDHEAD 4.7 Miles 7 GIBBET HILL 5.3 miles 7 THE SAILOR’S STONE 5.0 Miles 7 THE CELTIC CROSS 5.3 Miles 7 THE DEVIL’s PUNCH BOWL 4.7 to 5.3 Miles 8 TEMPLE OF THE FOUR WINDS 5.6 miles 9 HIGHCOMBE HIKE 7.4 to 10.2 miles 10 WAGGONER’S WELLS 14.6 miles 11 THE CANADIANS AT BRAMSHOTT 15.6 miles 12 HAMMER BOTTOM 18.2 miles 13 THE SUSSEX BORDER PATH 19.4 miles 14 BLACKDOWN & THE NATIONAL TRUST 23 miles 14 TENNYSON 23 miles 15 HASLEMERE’s WELL 27 miles 2 HASLEMERE - THE EARLY YEARS – Mile 0 The history of the town is obviously a huge topic, even for a little place like Haslemere.

Glad I’ve found you. Hunter Professor Tyndall! How are you, sir? Tyndall Touch of gout again, but I thought a short walk today would do me no harm. (Looking at the walkers) These friends of yours, are they? Hunter My walking companions today, yes. Tyndall Not come to buy up more of the land round my house then? Hunter You know I, of all people, would hardly be bringing land speculators round, professor. Tyndall Dashed nuisance they are! I came here for peace and quiet, and to enjoy breathing the purest air this side of the Alps. Mine was the only house up here when I built it six years ago in ’84 – couldn’t see another for miles – and then what happened? Hunter I fear you advertised your views on the benefits of living at Hindhead too well. Others followed your example. Tyndall How can one concentrate on doing serious work when there’s some Londoner busy building – right in front of your study window? Hunter Well quite, I… Tyndall Is it any wonder I had to erect screens to protect my privacy? Hunter The screens were, perhaps, slightly on the large side, professor.

In 1 88 1 was issued " Punishments in the Olden Time," and in 1890 was published "Old Time Punishments " : both works were well received by the press and the public, quickly passing out of print, and are not now easily obtainable. I contributed in 1894 to the Rev. Canon Erskine Clarke's popular monthly, the Parish Magazine, a series of papers entitled " Public Punishments of the Past." The foregfoinCT have been made the foundation of the present volume ; in nearly every instance I have re-written the articles, and provided additional chapters. This work is given to the public as my final production on this subject, and I trust it may receive a welcome similar to that accorded to my other books, and throw fresh light on some of the lesser known byways of history.
