  • 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.

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.

  • Tenants, Tenures and Transfers: the Landholding Experience of Rural
    Tenants, Tenures and Transfers: the landholding experience of rural customary tenants in some Hampshire downland manors, 1645-1705 Submitted by Juliet Dorothy Gayton to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History In June 2013 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University Signature: ………………………………………………………….. i Abstract This thesis examines the impact of different customary manorial tenures on the land transfer activities of rural tenants between 1645 and 1705. The study of land transfer has formed part of the attempt by historians to establish how and why England developed from family-based subsistence farming into large-scale commercialised agriculture before many of its Continental neighbours. A key element in any study of land transfer is the property rights of those undertaking the transfers. England had a variety of customary tenures, and little research has focussed on how they operated and impacted on rural tenant transfer behaviour in the early modern period. This study uses evidence from eight manors in Hampshire with four different types of tenure to explore how they affected what land transfer options the tenants had, and how transfers were used to further family and economic objectives. The types of tenure were copyhold of inheritance; copyhold for three lives; copyhold for three lives where the first could act alone; and a form of customary freehold.

  • You Don't Have to Be Ex-Service to Join…
    Barely a day goes by that doesn’t You don’t have to coincide with the anniversary of a conflict that cost the lives of British and be ex-Service to Commonwealth Servicemen and women. The momentous struggles of 1914-1918 and those of 1939-1945 join…. helped shape Britain, and define who and what we are today. The fact that the countries of Western Europe now coexist in peace and relative harmony with little prospect of future armed conflict within our borders is testament to the huge sacrifices made by past generations. British forces continue to serve in harm’s way to protect our freedom and prosperity worldwide. The Royal British Legion (RBL) aims to ensure that their sacrifices are never forgotten, and that members of the British armed forces, veterans and their families receive the support and care they need. The Droxford & District Branch predates the formation of the British Legion as ‘The Droxford Branch of the Comrades of the Great War’. This year marks the centenary of our first meeting held on 26th March 1920 at the White Horse Hotel. We now meet four times a year, usually at Droxford Village Hall, with a speaker on a range of interesting subjects. A curry supper delivered from the White Horse is available for those who have booked. There’s also an annual general meeting, an annual dinner, a summer drinks party, a Grand National draw and a pub-style quiz night.
