NAME Upper Clatford PARISH Upper Clatford HUNDRED Andover DISTRICT Test Valley NGR SU 354437 GEOLOGY Alluvium, river gravels and upper chalk SITE CONTEXT The village lies on the W bank of the River Test and the S bank of the Pillhill Brook at between 50 and 60m OD. W of the village is Bury Hill, the site of an IA hill-fort, which reaches 100m OD. PLAN TYPE & DESCRIPTION Regular row with periphery greens. The N-S street through the village is lined on both sides by properties which from regular rows. The block of properties on the W of the street has a long common rear boundary which tends to narrow to the S. In the N and central parts of this unit there appear to be property boundaries that probably formed part of a more regular pattern than shown on the map. On the E side of the street the properties are bounded at the rear by the canal and so this row appears narrower than the W side but may have originally had the river as the boundary. Along this unit there is more evidence of regular sub-division than on the W. Also there are two lanes at right angles to the main street leading to the canal. The majority of the older houses of the village on both sides of the road are aligned with their gable ends to the road. At the N end of the village the street turns towards the W and opens into a square green which is overlooked on the W side by the Manor. Along the N side of the road towards the green is a possible short regular row bounded on the W and E by lanes. At the S end of the village is another area of green S of the road towards the church which stands alone to the E of the village between two courses of the river. AREAS OF ARCHAEOLOGICAL POTENTIAL The church stands in isolation from the rest of the settlement but it is not certain that this was always the case and so the area surrounding the church is an AHAP and should be carefully examined before any proposed development. An AHAP extends along both sides of the main street through the village to cover the building lines. The rest of the plots at the rear of the properties lie within AAP. Within these areas there will probably be little evidence for actual building but information about the division of the plots, available only from archaeological investigation, could be forthcoming. To the S the AAP also includes the N end of what appeared to be an area of common in C19 but on which there are some slight 'humps and bumps'. That the earthworks are due to the construction of the railway or earlier canal is a possibility. CHURCH & CHURCHYARD All Saints. Chancel arch is Norman but is unusual because it is double. Probably reset. Norman N door and window in chancel S wall said to come from E wall. Tower of 1578.
