  • Householder Advice to Cope with Delayed Refuse Collections – Members Briefing Note
    Householder advice to cope with delayed refuse collections – Members briefing note As a result of reorganising the domestic waste collection rounds across the East Hampshire and Winchester Districts, an unfortunate but unavoidable outcome is that a number of areas will experience extended periods between refuse collections. The longest delay could be an extra 11 days (including weekends), but most people affected will have a shorter delay than this. Please see the list of affected areas at the bottom of this note. We apologise to residents for any inconvenience during this transitional period, but this delay will only apply for one collection. After that the new sequence of collections will revert to the familiar alternate weekly collection pattern of refuse – recycling – refuse – recycling. Most residents will be able to cope during this period but you may receive enquiries/complaints from residents about the interim arrangements. If you do then the advice that both councils are giving is as follows: • Advise householders to store any excess waste in their garage or shed until their next refuse collection is due. This should also allay any fears about animals/vermin attacking sacks of refuse left outside. • Anyone unhappy about providing refuse sacks for this purpose should be asked to contact the Winchester Customer Service Centre (who are dealing with all residents calls for the new Joint Waste Partnership) using the details given below. They will send out a free supply of 4 black refuse sacks to the customer in the post. • On the day of the next refuse collection the black sacks should be put out alongside or on top of the refuse bin.

  • The Bishop of Winchester's Deer Parks in Hampshire, 1200-1400
    Proc. Hampsk. Field Club Archaeol. Soc. 44, 1988, 67-86 THE BISHOP OF WINCHESTER'S DEER PARKS IN HAMPSHIRE, 1200-1400 By EDWARD ROBERTS ABSTRACT he had the right to hunt deer. Whereas parks were relatively small and enclosed by a park The medieval bishops of Winchester held the richest see in pale, chases were large, unfenced hunting England which, by the thirteenth century, comprised over fifty grounds which were typically the preserve of manors and boroughs scattered across six southern counties lay magnates or great ecclesiastics. In Hamp- (Swift 1930, ix,126; Moorman 1945, 169; Titow 1972, shire the bishop held chases at Hambledon, 38). The abundant income from his possessions allowed the Bishop's Waltham, Highclere and Crondall bishop to live on an aristocratic scale, enjoying luxuries (Cantor 1982, 56; Shore 1908-11, 261-7; appropriate to the highest nobility. Notable among these Deedes 1924, 717; Thompson 1975, 26). He luxuries were the bishop's deer parks, providing venison for also enjoyed the right of free warren, which great episcopal feasts and sport for royal and noble huntsmen. usually entitled a lord or his servants to hunt More deer parks belonged to Winchester than to any other see in the country. Indeed, only the Duchy of Lancaster and the small game over an entire manor, but it is clear Crown held more (Cantor et al 1979, 78). that the bishop's men were accustomed to The development and management of these parks were hunt deer in his free warrens. For example, recorded in the bishopric pipe rolls of which 150 survive from between 1246 and 1248 they hunted red deer the period between 1208-9 and 1399-1400 (Beveridge in the warrens of Marwell and Bishop's Sutton 1929).

The Dispersed Dead: preliminary observations on burial and settlement space in rural Roman Britain by John Pearce Introduction Large scale excavation of Roman rural sites in Britain often reveals individual or smail groups of burials dispersed across settlements, suggesting a recurring encounter of the living with the dead. The same is true of Roman Gaul (Ferdiere 1993). Yet with occasional exceptions rural burials in Britain have remained relatively invisible in terms of the proportion of archaeological analysis devoted to them (Collis 1977; Esmonde-Cleary 1992; Philpott & Reece 1993). The subject is largely absent from general investigations of the Romano-British countryside (e.g. Hingley 1989; Millett 1990; Smith 1997) and in the rejuvenated study of rural Roman settlement space, burial and other depositional practice remain the poor relations of architecture, while students of mortuary practice are perhaps deterred by the small sample sizes and the frequent lack of large grave good assemblages to which detailed statistical analysis may be applied.
