    Hartley Mauditt Hartley Mauditt 1.0 PARISH Worldham, formerly Hartley Mauditt 2.0 HUNDRED Alton 3.0 NGR 474300 136100 4.0 GEOLOGY Upper Greensand 5.0 SITE CONTEXT (Map 2) Hartley Mauditt was formerly the central place of its own parish. It is now classed as a deserted medieval settlement (DMS), the principal earthworks of which can be seen in the fields immediately north-west and south of the surviving parish church. The other principal feature of the settlement is a large spring-fed lake that is situated to the east of the church and is separated from it by a narrow road, the former route to Selborne Priory and onwards to Selborne. The lake supplies a stream that passes through settlement earthworks south of the church. The parish has been absorbed into Worldham CP and West Worldham is 1km north. 6.0 PLAN TYPE & DESCRIPTION (Maps 3, 4 & 5) Church & manor house + associated settlement 6.1 Church & manor house Hartley Mauditt church is the only surviving building of the Medieval settlement. At 148.32 AOD it stands above ground to the west that drops to 134.0 AOD within 0.5km. The former manor house is well documented. Its traditional site is now occupied by a copse within 30m west of the church (Paragraph 11.0 No. 1). A new manor house was built in the early C18. It is thought to have been demolished c. 1798. 6.2.1 Associated settlement The presence of other settlement buildings north, west and south of the church is attested by the numerous earthworks.

  • Diocesan Prayer Cycle 1St October - 31St December
    Diocesan Prayer Cycle 1st October - 31st December What is a Diocese and how do we work together within it? At its simplest, a Diocese is a geographical area; a region; a collection of parishes, benefices, deaneries, archdeaconries. But it is more than that – it is a gathering of all our communities in mutual support for each other. And as the Diocese of Winchester, we each play our part in the growth of God’s Kingdom committed to our vision of ‘living the mission of Jesus’. This prayer diary helps us to get to know each other better, to find out what is happening across the area and to see how God is working and using us all in his mission across the region. The early church shared good news of what was happening across a wide area, as churches grew, and more people came to know Christ. In their commitment to love and care for one another, prayer lay at the heart of their lives. As we use this Prayer Diary, let’s seek to share that love and care for each other and to rejoice in what God is doing amongst us. This month... how might you pray for young people? For example, you might focus on school leavers, students, youth workers, community centres, young people in trouble... How might you be part of the answer to your prayers? For example, you might make a point of smiling at young people in the street; volunteer for a helpline; get involved with your local Further Education College; support parents you know whose young adult children are struggling..

  • The Mediaeval Paving Tiles of the Alton Area of N. E. Hampshire
    PAPERS AND PROCEEDINGS 289 THE MEDIAEVAL PAVING TILES OF THE ALTON AREA OF N.E. HAMPSHIRE. By THE REV. G. E. C. KNAPP. HE interest of the writer in the study of Mediaeval Paving Tiles was aroused by the paper on the Tiles of Titchfield TAbbey in the Proceedings of the Hampshire Archaeological Society, Vol. XVII, Part I, and by Dr. and Mrs. A. R. Green, without whose help and encouragement the writer would not have embarked on the task of recording the tiles found in this part of the County, and to whom any value which the paper may have is due. The writer found ready assistance in this local research in a group of young people in whom, as part of their preparation for Confirmation, he was trying to arouse an interest in the inheritance which is ours in our ancient churches. The writer would record his appreciation of the help of the Misses Diana and Jennifer French, who traced many of the tiles and prepared the drawings for the illustration of this paper. Starting with our own church at Hartley Mauditt, the tiles there were recorded, and then, going further afield, Selborne was the objective. But the interest and enthusiasm of the young tile hunters was heightened by the discovery of further tiles in the churches of Faringdon and Binsted, which, Dr. Green assured us, had not been recorded in any of the books or reports on the Church treasures of Hampshire. The following churches in the Alton area have been inspected, those containing mediaeval tiles being shown in block letters : New Alresford, Old Alresford, ALTON ST.

  • Dogmersfield and Hartley Mauditt: Two Deserted Villages
    DOGMERSFIELD AND HARTLEY MAUDITT: TWO DESERTED VILLAGES By GWYN I. MEIRION-JONES, B.SC, M.PHIL. A NUMBER of Hampshire parishes are shown by the one inch to one mile of the Ordnance Survey (Seventh Series) to have anomalous features. They are frequently sparsely inhabited, having few dwellings many of which are well removed from a medieval church and bearing no clear relationship one to the other. Such parishes arouse curiosity and stimulate enquiry. The deserted village, as a feature of the English landscape, has long been known, some counties having a large number, but the history of only a few is recorded in detail. Destruction of villages took place throughout the Middle Ages and continued into the 17th and 18th centuries.1 The causes were many and various. Depopulation, sometimes over a period of time, occasioned by greater opportunities elsewhere, by disease, fire, or some other catastrophe, was often followed by the evacuation of a few remaining survivors. Agrarian change, the laying down of arable land to grass and the consequent need for less labour brought about partial or complete depopulation in some areas. Great landowners were known to evict whole villages as a preliminary to the creation of a park, whilst monastic communities absorbed villages or replaced them with granges, perhaps partly to gain greater solitude and partly for agrarian purposes. Known deserted villages are largely confined to arable England and most of these formerly contained some common open arable field. Field evidence may be available to supplement that of maps and documents. The identification of ridge and furrow in the present landscape in a parish now largely devoid of settlement is one factor which may indicate the former existence of a larger community.

AND DERBY 1906 [All Rights Reserved} TO THE MOST NOBLE The Duke of Wellington, k.g. THIS BOOK IS DEDICATED BY HIS GRACE'S KIND PERMISSION PREFACE may claim in a certain sense to be HAMPSHIREthe premier county of England, since though not quite so ancient a kingdom as Kent or Sussex, it " is, as Grant Allen calls it, the real original nucleus of the British Empire." It is also one of the most interesting of the counties, from the importance in early English history of its charming capital, the architectural value of its Cathedral and three of its other churches, its beautiful combinations of woodland and sea, its possession of more genuine forest than all the rest of England put together, and its chief place in the naval position of England, owing to the two great harbours afforded by its fortunate coast-line. To an editor of Memorials of Old Hampshire the first difficulty, therefore, is clearly of selection. It would not be difficult to imagine another volume of the present size made up only of those subjects that—for one reason or another—I have been obliged to pass over.
