  • HEAP for Isle of Wight Rural Settlement
    Isle of Wight Parks, Gardens & Other Designed Landscapes Historic Environment Action Plan Isle of Wight Gardens Trust: March 2015 2 Foreword The Isle of Wight landscape is recognised as a source of inspiration for the picturesque movement in tourism, art, literature and taste from the late 18th century but the particular significance of designed landscapes (parks and gardens) in this cultural movement is perhaps less widely appreciated. Evidence for ‘picturesque gardens’ still survives on the ground, particularly in the Undercliff. There is also evidence for many other types of designed landscapes including early gardens, landscape parks, 19th century town and suburban gardens and gardens of more recent date. In the 19th century the variety of the Island’s topography and the richness of its scenery, ranging from gentle cultivated landscapes to the picturesque and the sublime with views over both land and sea, resulted in the Isle of Wight being referred to as the ‘Garden of England’ or ‘Garden Isle’. Designed landscapes of all types have played a significant part in shaping the Island’s overall landscape character to the present day even where surviving design elements are fragmentary. Equally, it can be seen that various natural components of the Island’s landscape, in particular downland and coastal scenery, have been key influences on many of the designed landscapes which will be explored in this Historic Environment Action Plan (HEAP). It is therefore fitting that the HEAP is being prepared by the Isle of Wight Gardens Trust as part of the East Wight Landscape Partnership’s Down to the Coast Project, particularly since well over half of all the designed landscapes recorded on the Gardens Trust database fall within or adjacent to the project area.

One clause seemed directly written to me - the President was “not ex- pected to be expert in all the fields covered by the various sections." As most of you will know, unlike past Presidents who have been specialists, I am very much an ordinary member with a general interest in natural history and archaeology, but my membership over many years has widened my knowledge and kept up a spirit of inquiry. With this in mind last May I joined the general meeting exploring the ground around the glass- houses of Wight Salads, somewhere completely new to me. It proved to be two hours of continuous in- terest as we wandered by the new lakes created from the water used in the hydroponic growing system. With experts in identifying grasses, mosses, flowers, birds all to hand, and all more than willing to point out, identify and explain when I asked any question. It was a real illustration of teaching and learning in the best way.

We were attending the launch of HEAP, an unfortunate acronym, which still makes me think of garden rubbish. However, when the letters are opened up we find The Isle of Wight Historic Environ- ment Action Plan, a title which encompasses the historic landscape of the Island, the environment in which we live today and the future which we are bound to protect. It extends the work already being un- dertaken by the Island Biodiversity Action Plan, a little known but invaluable structure, which has al- ready been at work for ten years. This body brings together the diverse groups, national and local, whose concern is with the habitats and species which are part of our living landscape. The HEAP will do much the same at a local level for the landscape of the Island, the villages, towns, standing monuments which take us from the Stone Age to the present day and, most importantly, the agricultural landscape which is particularly vulnerable to intrusion and sometimes alarming change.

  • The Island Tea & Coffee
    E The Island Tea & Coffee Co. Freshly roasted coffee on the Isle of Wight. Following a summer which certainly kept us on our toes weather-wise, we are now slipping into autumn with its ‘mists and mellow fruitfulness’… with its SAS-style dawn- raids on the local hedgerows - although those who have been waiting patiently for the sloes to have their first frost, may have been disappointed to find the bushes stripped bare when they turned up at the secret place only they know about!! The seasonal chill in the air also heralds the beginning of …Thermostat Wars!! Has it been suggested to you yet that you might ‘put another jumper on’ instead of the central heating??!! After a break (and how many of you knew that Bob speaks fluent Russian!!?) Focus On returns with the Qs and As of a ‘local girl made good!’ Our junior reporters, Polly and Flora, tell us what they have been doing during the summer, and we have reports and round-ups of pretty much every- thing that has been going on in the parish, along with news of forthcoming events. Steve’s stroll down the memory lane of the last ten years of the C&G News provoked much reminiscing. We would love to hear about your own ‘highlights’ from the last ten years ... I’ll start the ball rolling with some of my own personal memories … the 2010 and 2012 very successful May Days; having my photograph taken at the school, holding the 2012 Olympic Torch; how seemingly half the village turned out one evening in May 2008 to search when Daisy was missing.

  • Barton Village and the Great War 1914-1918 Anthony Ewen
    Barton Village And The Great War 1914-1918 Anthony Ewen BARTON VILLAGE & THE GREAT WAR 1914-1918 Contents Introduction and Personal Note Map Street by Street Meaning of Terms The Fallen Events Timeline The Armistice and After The Survivors Cemeteries and Memorials Acknowledgements BARTON VILLAGE & THE GREAT WAR 1914-1918 Introduction Like almost every community in the country, Barton Village felt the tragedy of the conflict. The war memorial in the church of St Paul’s Barton commemorates the names of 124 men who lost their lives, whilst the memorial for Barton School repeats the names of the 70 former pupils who died and confirms that 750 former Barton Boys took part in the hostilities, one of whom was awarded the Military Cross and six the Military Medal. Barton School Memorial St Paul’s Church Barton Memorial The early patriotic fervour that greeted the outbreak of war and the later introduction of conscription saw the young men of the community sign up for duty across the range of military services, so, along with the more expected signings to ‘local’ regiments such as The Hampshire Regiment and The Isle Of Wight Rifles we see men enlisted in battalions of the Army further afield and the Royal Navy. In some cases men are identified with overseas Regiments (Australia and Canada) and it is probably the case that, whilst being born on the Isle of Wight and attending Barton School, these emigrated prior to 1914 due to the severe local unemployment situation at home. The Isle of Wight County Press (IWCP) on 26 September 1914, under a heading of ‘The Island Roll of Honour’, began printing lists of Island men already involved in the conflict.

  • Beyond the Graves
    BEYOND THE GRAVES Volume 9, Number 2, April 2014 EMIGRATION AND THE RETURN TO FIGHT FOR THE MOTHER COUNTRY COME TO CANADA - as early as 1900 the Isle of Wight Times was promoting emigration to Canada: During the past few years there has been an increased movement of settlers from the United Kingdom, and from Europe, to Canada. This is not to be wondered at when we think of the great advantages the country offers to new arrivals. Free grants of land may be obtained in several of the provinces and Crown grants may be acquired on nominal terms, while in all parts of the country improved farms can be purchased at reasonable prices. There are millions of acres of land still waiting occupation and cultivation, destined to provide homes for a larger number of people in future. After an emigration office was established in Trafalgar House, London, in 1903 the number of Britons enticed to emigrate to Canada increased dramatically, reaching its peak in 1912 and 1913, before the First World War brought a sudden end to the movement of people. Canada welcomed about 400,000 a year just before the fighting started and has never reached that level again. The closing of the American frontier, expansion of Canadian railways, new developments in dry land farming and the Canadian government's policy promoting immigration were all factors leading to an increase in emigration to Canada at this time. Many sons of the Isle of Wight were in the process of making Canada their new home when hostilities in Europe began.

J Saunders Royal Air Force Grant them, Lord, eternal rest, and let light perpetual shine upon them. Welcome to the spring 2014 edition of the Chillerton & Gatcombe Newsletter. Don’t worry, Jill Webster is still very much at the helm but has invited me to write a few words of introduction to this special edition that marks the 100th anniversary year of the commencement of the Great War in 1914. There will be a great deal written, spoken and broadcast this year about 1914 and we wanted to make our own small contribution. We are acutely aware that many people have mixed feelings about ‘commemorat- ing’ the start of a conflict that led to so many tragic deaths on all sides. For me it is only about the act remembrance and anything that is done to preserve the memory of those who made and continue to make the ultimate sacrifice is a good thing. You will see on the inside cover the names of the fallen who had an attachment to our parish. These names are recorded on the Roll of Honour held at St Olave’s church in Gatcombe and are commemorated with a special church service each year.
