HE district round Basingstoke offers itself as the subject for a study of Romano-British . population development and. Tdistribution because Basingstoke Museum contains a singu­ larly complete collection of finds made in this area over a long period of years, and preserved by Mr. G. W. Willis. A number of the finds made are recorded by him and J. R. Ellaway in the Proceedings of the Hampshire Field Club (Vol. XV, 245 ff.). The known sites in the district were considerably multiplied by the field-work of S. E. Winbolt, who recorded them in the Proceedings of the same Society.1 I must express my indebtedness to Mr. G. W. Willis, F.S.A., Hon. Curator of Basingstoke Museum, for his courtesy and assist­ ance in affording access to the collection for the purposes of this study, which is part of a broader work on the Romano-British rural system.2 The area from which the bulk of the collection comes is limited on the north by the edge of the London Clay between Kingsclere and Odiham ; its east boundary is approximately that, of the east limit of the Eastern Hampshire High Chalk Region' southward to Alton. The south boundary crosses that region through Wilvelrod, Brown Candover and Micheldever, with outlying sites to the south at Micheldever Wood and Lanham Down (between Bighton and Wield). The western limit, equally arbitrary, falls along the line from Micheldever through Overton to Kingsclere.

  • Social History

    Social History

    SOCIAL HISTORY Dummer’s wealth and character was based on sheep farming which was dominant from the late Middle Ages. A nucleated settlement, apart from the outlying houses and farms of Dummer Grange and Dummer Down, lords of the manor(s) were resident until the break-up of the estate in the 1920s. The unusual level of religious nonconformity evident in the late 17th century remains unexplained in the light of the social structure of the parish. Enclosure of land in 1743 transformed community life, settled for generations. Relationship with nearby Basingstoke has been influential as have major transport routes traversing the parish. Significant change occurred in the 20th century from a farming-centred society, pre-1950s, to a prosperous commuter and retirement village. Dummer had a school from 1610 and a number of endowed charities. For a small parish it had a surprising number of famous visitors including John Wesley, Jane Austen, Joseph Arch and the future King George IV. Social links with Kempshott were close long before it was added to the civil parish in 1879. Social Character The Middle Ages Judging from Domesday Book, late 11th century Dummer was a typical agricultural community similar to neighbouring parishes situated on the chalk downlands, south of Basingstoke. East and West Dummer manors were of a similar size, each with land for five ploughs, although more land was held in demesne by the lord in East Dummer. The population of West Dummer was higher with eight villans, nine bordars and three slaves, indicating a population of 20 families; that of East Dummer consisted of two villans and three bordars.1 The grange of Dummer which had been granted to Waverley Abbey, a Cistercian House, in the 12th century was a third farming centre in the parish and worked as a separate manor, probably cultivated by lay brothers or local tied peasants, administered directly by the abbey.2 By the beginning of the 14th century Dummer was in the middle rank of parishes in the Bermondspit hundred when compared for wealth, with tax assessed in 1327 at 1 Domesday, 108,121.
