There are 9 inevitably going to be some dis- ruptions and challenges during the construction process, such as the work to the millpond and re-landscaping the car parks, but the operational side of the Louise Adams Louise museum will function as usual. 14 The medieval house from Sole Street and the Pallingham Quay wagon shed were successfully dismantled during the latter part of 2015 and the site cleared awaiting the arrival of the building contractors who start construction work at the beginning of March.

HE district round Basingstoke offers itself as the subject for a study of Romano-British . population development and. Tdistribution because Basingstoke Museum contains a singu­ larly complete collection of finds made in this area over a long period of years, and preserved by Mr. G. W. Willis. A number of the finds made are recorded by him and J. R. Ellaway in the Proceedings of the Hampshire Field Club (Vol. XV, 245 ff.). The known sites in the district were considerably multiplied by the field-work of S. E. Winbolt, who recorded them in the Proceedings of the same Society.1 I must express my indebtedness to Mr. G. W. Willis, F.S.A., Hon. Curator of Basingstoke Museum, for his courtesy and assist­ ance in affording access to the collection for the purposes of this study, which is part of a broader work on the Romano-British rural system.2 The area from which the bulk of the collection comes is limited on the north by the edge of the London Clay between Kingsclere and Odiham ; its east boundary is approximately that, of the east limit of the Eastern Hampshire High Chalk Region' southward to Alton. The south boundary crosses that region through Wilvelrod, Brown Candover and Micheldever, with outlying sites to the south at Micheldever Wood and Lanham Down (between Bighton and Wield). The western limit, equally arbitrary, falls along the line from Micheldever through Overton to Kingsclere.

Pam Morley 5 St Mary’s Road Liss Hampshire GU33 7AH Tel: 01730 894147 Email:[email protected] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ NEWSLETTER AUGUST 2013 Good News for once! After all the lean – and wet – summers it is almost unbelievable to report a potentially good harvest. All the varieties are looking good. Even the Bacchus grape, which has been reluctant to produce much in the past, has branches with good looking fruit. After last summer’s disastrous weather we had hopes for this year but it looked as though this would come to nothing in the cold wet spring. The vines were reluctant to start growing and budburst was at least two weeks later than usual. Then everything changed, there was a bright breezy spell, which is what the vines need at flowering time and all three varieties set a good crop. Since then the weather has been good with plenty of sun and so far although there are traces of mildews most have been kept at bay. It could all change, there could be contiguous rain from now on, but even so we ought to be able to salvage enough to make a worthwhile vintage. The current estimate for the first picking is for the first week in October with the second two to three weeks later. Beech Hanger Gold wins award We haven’t been entering our wines for the National competition (UK wine of the Year) recently. We didn’t have much stock, and entering involves a fee and sending bottles up for specialist analysis, also at a price.

It further requires an additional buffer of 5% to ensure choice and competition or a 20% buffer where there is a record of persistent under delivery. 1.2 A formal assessment is conducted on five year housing land supply annually, with a year start date of April 1st to March 31st. This report sets out the housing supply position in East Hampshire District (not including the area within the South Downs National Park) at 1st April 2017. It will inform the Council’s Authority Monitoring Report (AMR) and will help guide the determination of planning applications where housing supply is identified as an issue.

  • Old Roads in Central Hants by C
    324 OLD ROADS IN CENTRAL HANTS BY C. F. C. HAWKES. Although many of the roads to be found in this country are of very great age, yet none of them are older than the earliest settlements. Villages and camps were not established, along the line of already existing roads, but roads grew up as links between settlements. Before the Saxon invasion all the villages were oh the uplands, and hence the roads followed the lines of the ridges from one to another. This was the best way for several reasons:—It was the driest, and generally avoided streams, and it lay over open ground; moreover, the safest route for travel . is always that with the widest view. But the principal reason was that the uplands were the centres of population. The oldest prehistoric roads are the long trade routes stretch- ing right across the country, which form the skeleton of the whole system: they keep, wherever possible, to the high ridge tops or just on the south brow, and where a ridge has to be crossed it is usually at a saddle with an easy gradient: for the crossing of a river valley, they generally descend by some spur with a gentle slope, and always choose a place as high up the river as possible, where the difficult wet valley is narrow. But later there grew up parallel roads beside them, which kept to the lower slopes of the ridges, and were used in dry summer weather, when travellers were not forced to get right to the crest of a ridge to find a passable road.

To try to address these deep seated concerns about how our community will develop and evolve, and yet at the same time meet the presumption in favour of ‘sustainable development’ which is central to the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) a group of local residents and parish councillors (with the help of rCOH, an independent planning consultancy) have put together this Submission Neighbourhood Plan.
