  • Post-Medieval & Modern Berkshire & Hampshire
    POST MEDIEVAL AND MODERN (INDUSTRIAL, MILITARY, INSTITUTIONS AND DESIGNED LANDSCAPES) HAMPSHIRE AND BERKSHIRE David Hopkins November 2006 Introduction Hampshire. Hampshire is dominated by the chalk landscape which runs in a broad belt, east west, across the middle of the county. The northern edge runs through Pilot Hill and Basingstoke, the southern edge through Kings Somborne and Horndean. These are large, open and fertile landscapes dominated by agriculture. Agriculture is the principle force behind the character of the landscape and the evolution of the transport network and such industry as exists. There are large vistas, with nucleated villages, isolated farms and large extents of formal enclosure. Market towns developed linked by transport routes. Small scale processing using the water power available from streams was supported by, and eventually replaced by, growing industrialisation in some towns, usually those where modern transport (such as rail) allowed development. These towns expanded and changed in character, whilst other less well placed towns continue to retain their market town character. North and south of the chalk are bands of tertiary deposits, sands, gravels and clays. Less fertile and less easy to farm for much of their history they have been dominated by Royal Forest. Their release from forest and small scale nature of the agricultural development has lead to a medieval landscape, with dispersed settlement and common edge settlement with frequent small scale isolated farms. The geology does provide opportunities for extractive industry, and the cheapness of the land, and in the north the proximity to London, led to the establishment of military training areas, and parks and gardens developed by London’s new wealthy classes.

  • Towards an International City of Culture
    Towards an International City of Culture Southampton City Council Arts and Heritage Strategic Vision Executive Summary This Strategic Vision defines Southampton City Council’s strategic role regarding Arts and Heritage provision within the wider context of the City of Southampton Strategy towards 2026, council priorities, the Southampton Heritage and Arts People initiative (SHAPe), and the sub-regional Partnership for Urban South Hampshire (PUSH). Southampton is a thriving and growing city with a diverse and dynamic population. However, these developments are in pockets and other parts of the city (economically, physically, socially) remain significantly deprived. We want to transform Southampton from being a gateway to a place of destination where people want to visit, put down roots and engage in community. The City has a fantastic opportunity over the next twenty years to transform its cultural offer and create an overall vibrant cultural soul, a sense of identity and uniqueness that connects people to each other and to Southampton as place. Its rich cultural makeup, internationally important heritage story and nationally dynamic arts and creative scene provide an inspirational resource for exploitation. The significance of Southampton within the Partnership for Urban South Hampshire (PUSH) regional development area will ensure that this potential can be realised particularly within the context of Living Places. Culture is critical to Southampton’s economic development, health and wellbeing and the creation of an attractive image of the city as a place in which people want to live, work and play. Without a vibrant cultural soul, Southampton becomes a divided, anonymous, modern and transient settlement with little civic pride or unique sense of place, and without an attractive, sustainable and stimulating environment that people value.

Garden Wildlife Recording 4 Thanks are also due to the speakers themselves, to Cath Corney for arranging the talks, and to Anthea and Vernon Jones for making the teas Bats — Superheroes of the Night 7 and coffees.

  • Southampton's Migrant Past
    SOUTHAMPTON’S MIGRANT PAST A WALKING TOUR This pamphlet and the walking tour are to introduce you to the rich history of Southampton’s migrant past. Southampton, even from prehistory, has been shaped by migration – both through invasion (Romans, Saxon, Viking and Norman) and by refugees and others who have chosen to come or have been sent here, making it the exciting cosmopolitan city it is today. Much of this migrant past is hidden but can still be found. This is typified by the cover illustration – the wonderful automata Bathers in Southampton Water by Sam Smith. Sam, the son of a steamship captain, grew up in Southampton and used to watch the liners go by, impressed as a lad only by the number and size of their funnels. Later in life after visiting Ellis Island in New York he realised that they were vessels carrying thousands of ordinary migrants. In this work, Sam Smith tells the user of this model that in the bowels of the ship ‘you may espy the Steerage Passengers’. These, he believed, were ‘the real people’. Similarly this walking tour will make ‘the invisible, visible’ so that the migrant contribution can be fully appreciated - not only for those who live here but also to visitors to Southampton. Southampton, past and present, is a place of movement and settlement. This tour is designed to show that its dynamism is built on migration. We hope you enjoy exploring these exciting sites which will concentrate on the historic quarter and the old dock area. A separate tour of the old Cemetery - over a mile to the north - is also provided, revealing again the fascinating and unique histories of migrant Southampton.

  • Court Leet Presentments 2016
    COURT LEET PRESENTMENTS 2016 No. SUBJECT LEAD LEAD PRESENTMENT OFFICER MEMBER 1. Sholing Junior School Flight Lieutenant Mike Harris Councillor On the 16th August 1940 Flight Lieutenant Eric James Brindley Eric James Kaur Nicholson was badly injured in his Hawker Hurricane which was shot by Brindley Nicholson a Messerschmitt over Southampton. His plane burst into flames after the petrol tank was set alight. Fortunately, he survived and won the Victoria Cross for his bravery against the enemy, the Victoria Cross is the highest and most prestigious award you can earn. Our school noticed that there is no memorial in Southampton for this amazing man, yet he fought in the skies above our city and almost lost his life. A couple of weeks later, a small group of children and teachers travelled to the Houses of Parliament to talk to MP Royston Smith about a memorial for James Brindley Nicholson. After some reasoning he agreed that it was a good idea to make a plaque in our new school building. With the governors’ permission, the teachers set a competition to design the plaque. Finally after weeks of waiting for the plaque to be made at the stone masons it eventually arrived to be placed in the building. At long last what we had set out to achieve had finally come to fruition. We feel that James Brindley Nicholson should be remembered for his heroics and bravery. Therefore we hope to achieve more and get Southampton City Council to recognise James Brindley Nicholson’s exploits and sanction a memorial, similar to the one at our school, to be installed at a prominent location in the City.
