  • Historic Landscape Character Areas and Their Special Qualities and Features of Significance
    Historic Landscape Character Areas and their special qualities and features of significance Volume 1 Third Edition March 2016 Wyvern Heritage and Landscape Consultancy Emma Rouse, Wyvern Heritage and Landscape Consultancy www.wyvernheritage.co.uk – [email protected] – 01747 870810 March 2016 – Third Edition Summary The North Wessex Downs AONB is one of the most attractive and fascinating landscapes of England and Wales. Its beauty is the result of many centuries of human influence on the countryside and the daily interaction of people with nature. The history of these outstanding landscapes is fundamental to its present‐day appearance and to the importance which society accords it. If these essential qualities are to be retained in the future, as the countryside continues to evolve, it is vital that the heritage of the AONB is understood and valued by those charged with its care and management, and is enjoyed and celebrated by local communities. The North Wessex Downs is an ancient landscape. The archaeology is immensely rich, with many of its monuments ranking among the most impressive in Europe. However, the past is etched in every facet of the landscape – in the fields and woods, tracks and lanes, villages and hamlets – and plays a major part in defining its present‐day character. Despite the importance of individual archaeological and historic sites, the complex story of the North Wessex Downs cannot be fully appreciated without a complementary awareness of the character of the wider historic landscape, its time depth and settlement evolution. This wider character can be broken down into its constituent parts.

    THE NORTH WESSEX DOWNS AREA OF OUTSTANDING NATURAL BEAUTY Promotional Toolkit Issue 1 Photograph: Gary Prictor Fast and free access to the promotional resources you need to help boost visitor numbers Overview of The North Wessex Downs Photograph: North Wessex Downs The North Wessex Downs is a tranquil yet stunning landscape of rolling chalk downlands, forests, woods and dales. Beech woodland crowns the tops of many of the downs providing wonderful panoramic views for miles around. Thinly populated, the downs project a feeling of remoteness and timelessness. In the vast skies above, skylarks, lapwings and majestic birds of prey can be seen. The world famous Uffington White Horse and Avebury Stone circle are located on the Ridgeway path running across the north of the region along with many other ancient barrows and hill forts. Close to major conurbations, the Downs is the ideal place to get away from it all and enjoy the freedom of the countryside while respecting the environment. There are many footpaths, horse riding trails and cycle paths criss-crossing the landscape and taking in many of the best views and ancient monuments. If you prefer to travel by water you can hire a canal boat or go Photograph: North Wessex Downs Photograph: Anne Seth canoeing along the Kennet and Avon Canal. The North Wessex Downs has a great industrial heritage. At the Crofton Pumping Station on the Kennet and Avon Canal, you can see the world’s oldest steam engines or visit the only working windmill in Wessex at Wilton. There are also fine country houses.

  • Pewsey Ridge Walk
    Pewsey Ridge Walk Wansdyke and he long ridge of downland north of Pewsey has stunning views to the south before ... over the Vale of Pewsey with Silbury Hill and Avebury visible to the north. There are numerous ancient sites dating from Neolithic to Saxon times showing Tim Lunt T how this landscape has been of great importance throughout the ages. Avril Porter, National Trust Guide at Avebury, led a full day circular walk of 8 miles in June 2012 starting from the Knap Hill car park above Alton Barnes. About 20 hardy BACAS members were there and prepared for the worst that the elements could throw at them. The early summer had involved weeks of rain and on this day the forecast was again bad, but we were lucky…the rain held off until we just got back to the car park! Heading west, the first stop is at Adam’s Grave, a distinctive long barrow on the skyline 60m long and 6m high. Remnants of the entrance remain and when excavated was found to contain four skeletons. Dated at around 3000BC it looks across eastwards to the causewayed Neolithic enclosure on Knap Hill. Further west, we pass the Alton Barnes White Horse figure (cut in 1812AD) to reach Milk Hill, Wiltshire’s highest point at 295m. The adjacent Tan Hill, famous for its horse fair held on St Anne's Day in August from 1499 to 1932, has been found to be just 26cm lower! The ground here was covered with yellow rockrose but the bad spring weather had delayed the orchids that are usually plentiful.

Pat Woodruffe and Tim Rich write about the work of Barbara Welch from the 1920s to the 1950s. Barbara was a prolific recorder of Wiltshire plants. The work of such past recorders can help us understand the context of our recording work today. The article provides a description of the information available from Barbara’s records. Hopefully, some detail regarding particular groups of species can be in later issues. Long-lived plants provide another link between the past and the present, and Jack Oliver’s study of ancient trees in Wiltshire, of which the current article is only a small part, covers many species. In this issue we include his work on beeches, chestnuts and oaks. There should be much more in later issues. There follows a collection of articles about the present.

Hungerford is a picturesque market town with a population of 5,000 situated in the Kennet valley midway between Newbury and Marlborough. It straddles the A4, which is now a quieter road since the construction of the M4 which runs close by. It has a stable, closely-knit community with a low crime rate and living conditions of a high standard. As an indication of its law-abiding tradition Hungerford has not witnessed the act of murder for 111 years; the last was in 1876 when two Police Officers, an Inspector and a Constable, were shot and killed by poachers.
