  • Hartley Mauditt Hartley Mauditt
    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..

However, NPPF 2019 paragraph 72 makes it clear that a standalone new settlement should be of a size to support a sustainable community, with sufficient access to services and employment opportunities within the development itself or in larger towns where there is good access.
