2. Richard Mattingly (1710–1789) Richard Mattingly Was Born in 1710 to Richard and Hannah Tyler of Baughurst in Hampshire 2. Richard Mattingly (1710–1789) Richard Mattingly was born in 1710 to Richard and Hannah Tyler of Baughurst in Hampshire. Very little is known about his early life, apart from the fact he was to have a sister, Hannah who was born in 1720. Our next record is his marriage to Anna Winkworth on the 11th April 1737 in the village of Wootton St. Lawrence, seven miles to the south of Baughurst. Anna was one of three daughters, whose father, Robert was a member of a family that had long been established in the village. Richard and Anna were to spend their lives In Wootton St. Lawrence, where they were to bring up their four children - Robert ( 1738-1815), Anna (born 1748), Thomas ( 1750 - 1832) and Richard ( 1754 - 1830). All four children were to marry and have their own children. Richard Mattingly would have worked for the Bigg-Wither family, who owned most of the village and surrounding countryside. Their mansion was Manydown House with a large Park around it to the west of the village. They also owned the neighbouring estate known as “Tangier”. Richard was to die in 1789 and his wife, Anna in 1792 after spending their life In Wootton St. Lawrence, a village still relatively unchanged, apart from the loss of Manydown, which was demolished in 1965.

  • Appendix 1 – Parish Council Responses
    Appendix 1 – Parish Council responses Oakley Parish Council Initial Comments Object: “The Planning Committee of the Oakley and Deane Parish Council met last evening and discussed the above application. The members object to the application, for the following reasons: The closure of Roman Road will be a huge mistake. The safety issues at Wellington Terrace are undoubtedly important but to close the access to the A339 will make the Main Street slow and congested, and add time to journeys from Oakley , Overton and Whitchurch to the hospital, to Chineham and Reading etc. Re the traffic control from the closed off Roman Road to Main Street – it is not clear from the application how this will be managed. Traffic flows from Oakley, Overton and Whitchurch do not take into account all the new developments agreed in the Local Plan (a total of 870 new homes). The projected Main Street traffic flows appear to ignore all traffic from Oakley and Overton. If Roman Road is closed, Main Street itself will be a barrier across the development and there is no realistic chance that people will walk or cycle along a road that will have to take all the HGVs (who are following the recommended route from the M3 to the B3400 ) that cannot come under the Worting Road bridge due to height restrictions, plus all the traffic from Oakley and Overton and other points west. The proposed closure of Roman Road will make drivers use the rat run through Wootton St Lawrence to avoid using Main Street. This will create safety issues, because the Wootton Road has poor visibility, is very winding, and has no lighting.

KENNETH BAKER MP SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT BACKGROUND 1. In a letter dated 20 December 1984 we were informed of your predecessor's decision not to give effect to "our proposals to transfer part of the parish of Monk Sherborne, at Charter Alley, to the parish of Wootton St. Lawrence. He felt that in the light of representations subsequently made to him this element of our proposals warranted further consideration. Accordingly, in exercise of his powers under section 51(3 ) of the Local Government Act 1972 he directed us to undertake a 'further review of the parishes of Monk Sherborne and Wootton St. Lawrence, and to make such revised proposals as we saw fit before 31 December 1985. CONSIDERATION OF DRAFT PROPOSALS 2. In preparing our draft proposals we considered a number of possible alternative approaches to uniting Charter Alley within one parish, bearing in mind the represent- ations made to the Secretary of State. 3. The first was to create a new parish consisting of the northern parts of the existing parishes of Monk Sherborne and Wootton St. Lawrence and bounded in the south by the A339. One difficulty with this approach was that whilst Monk Sherborne Parish Council would have welcomed the idea, Wootton St.

  • Field Systems and Demesne Farming on the Wiltshire Estates of Saint Swithun's Priory, Winchester, I248-134O* by BAN KY HAR KISON
    Field Systems and Demesne Farming on the Wiltshire Estates of Saint Swithun's Priory, Winchester, I248-134o* By BAN_KY HAR_KISON Abstract Manorial compoti are used to describe the demesne agriculture of Winchester Cathedral Priory on its chalkland manors in Wihshire between I248 and I34o. The demesnes are found to have been operated largely within the two-field systems of the viUs even where, at first sight, the use of independent furlongs seems to be suggested. The disadvantages of this system were partly offset by the priory's near monopoly of pasture, hay and timber resources, as well as by the absence of sub-manors and freeholds. Nevertheless, productivity is found to be low - although no lower than on other demesnes in the same district - but some evidence of intensification through the use of legumes and relatively high stocking ratios has been found for certain cereals on a few manors where market sale rather than monastic supply was the main object of arable farming. EDIEWL farming practices in local level has indeed been undertaken Wiltshire are better known than with impressive results for the later medie- M those of other Wessex counties val and early modem periods but compari- thanks largely to a long tradition of local sons with the earlier period, before the journal and record publications, and to the Black Death, tend to be based either upon thoroughly researched parish surveys in the much older work or upon the parish sur- on-going Victoria County History.

  • Winchester Cathedral Close
    PAPERS AND PROCEEDINGS ' 9 WINCHESTER CATHEDRAL CLOSE. By T. D. ATKINSON. Present Lay-out. HE Cathedral precincts of to-day are conterminous with those of the Middle Ages-containing the Priory of Saint Swithun, T and are still surrounded by the great wall of the monastery. ' But while the church itself has been lucky in escaping most of the misfortunes which have overtaken so many cathedral and other churches, the monastic, buildings have been among the most unfortunate. The greater number have been entirely destroyed. The present lay-out of the Close not only tells us nothing of the monastic plan, but so far as possible misleads us. The only building which informs us of anything that we could not have guessed for ourselves is the Deanery. That does tell us at least where the Prior v lived. For the rest, the site of the very dorter, as the monks called their dormitory, is uncertain, while we are still more ignorant of the position of the infirmary, a great building probably measuring 200. feet by 50 feet.1 There is little left either of material remains, or of documentary evidence to give us a hint on these things, for the documents have perished and the general topography has been turned upside down and its character entirely transformed. Upside down because the main entrance to the precincts is now on the South, whereas it was formerly to the North, and transformed because the straight walks . of the cloister and the square courts and gardens harmonizing with the architecture have given place to elegant serpentine carriage sweeps which branch into one another with easy curves, like a well-planned railway junction.

A residential property in Cannon Heath, Overton, was broken into during daylight hours and jewellery was stolen. An electric bike was stolen from a garage in Ecchinswell. Some facts about burglaries (sources in brackets). Most burglaries take place between 10am and 3pm. (Safestyle UK) The average burglary lasts for eight minutes. (Dr Claire Nee, Unviersity of Portsmouth) Many burglaries are ‘spur of the moment’ decisions by a burglar who notices an open door, open window, valuables on display or some other weakness. (Thames Valley Police) The vast majority of burglars will want to avoid meeting the home’s occupants at any cost. (The Independent) A burglar may typically examine many houses before finding one that looks like an easy one to steal from. Homes with no security measures in place are five times more likely to be burgled than those with simple security measures. Good window locks and strong deadlocks can make a big difference. In most burglaries, the criminals broke into the house or flat through the door, either by forcing the lock or kicking it in.
