AThe scoring system that we currently adopt aims to recognise a wide range of the gamut of characteristics one would ideally have in the ‘perfect’ WTT conservation scheme. This goes at least some way towards providing a platform for comparing highly disparate projects. For instance, a project that scores more modestly in the area of community engagement may score more strongly in its specific impact on wild trout. However, to reflect the more specialised and constrained situations of (often) large-scale works subjected to competitive tender versus the much more rounded aspirations of many Jon Beer (right) with WTT Conservation partnership-based projects (a good Officer Andy Thomas on a Practical Visit. example would be works done in river corridors by wildlife trusts); it seems sensible to group ‘Professional’ projects separately from “Partnership” projects. on Beer is well known in the fishing time for me to step aside. I wish Jon In addition, it would be unfair to insist community for his journalism which good luck, knowing that I'm handing that the more limited means of keen rJeflect his love of wild trout and over the role to someone who will fishing clubs or small ‘friends of’ groups fishing, but his background includes serve the Trust brilliantly.

Alluvium in the river valley. 5.0 SITE CONTEXT (Map 2) Hamble (le Rice) is situated on a triangular tongue of land that is bounded on the east by the River Hamble and to the south and west by Southampton Water. The parish is c.3.5km² being <5m AOD in the area of the riverside (east) but rising to c. 18m AOD within 500m westwards. There are several listed buildings around The Quay and The Square but the north part of the parish was a World War II airfield. It is in this latter area that there is a concentration of new housing and development was continuing at the time of the site visit. The River Hamble is tidal here and this has encouraged the construction of extensive marina facilities. An area of common survives to the south of the settlement and this is now public open space. 6.0 PLAN TYPE & DESCRIPTION (Maps 3, 4 & 5) Monastic house + agglomeration Hamble was not mentioned in the Domesday Book but there is an eighth-century topographical reference to the mouth of the River Hamble in Bede’s History of the English Church and People (Sherley-Price [trans], 1955: 234). The location of Hamble-le Rice, on a tongue of land at the south-east end of Hound CP, suggests that it was a part of that manor or estate in C11.

    The Parsonage

    WELCOME TO THE PARSONAGE Dear Angler, Welcome to The Parsonage and your fishing on the River Test. By now I hope you are relaxed, reading this with a cup of coffee and preparing for a great fishing day. Here is a summary of the fishing and what to expect; have a lovely day. The River Test has a total length of 40 miles and it flows through downland from its source near Overton, 6 miles to the west of Basingstoke, to the sea at the head of Southampton Water. Ron Broomfield The river rises in the village of Ashe, and flows west through the villages of Overton, Laverstoke, and the town River Keeper of Whitchurch, before joining with the Bourne Rivulet at Testbourne and turning in a more southerly direction. It then flows through the villages of Longparish and Middleton to Wherwell and Chilbolton, where the Rivers Dever and Anton contribute to the flow. From Chilbolton the river flows through Leckford, Longstock, Stockbridge and Houghton, to Mottisfont and Kimbridge, where the River Dun joins the flow. From here the village of Timsbury is passed and then you are on The Parsonage beat. Below us are the grounds of Roke Manor, Greatbridge and the town of Romsey. On the western edge of Romsey, is Sadler's Mill, an 18th Century watermill, sits astride the River Test. South of Romsey, the river flows past the country house of Broadlands, past Nursling that was once the site of a Roman bridge, and between Totton and Redbridge. Here the river is joined by the River Blackwater and soon becomes tidal, widening out into a considerable estuary that is lined on its northern bank by the container terminals and quays of the Port of Southampton.

    Get out and Walk a Visitors’ Guide to Exploring Test Valley

    Get out and walk A visitors’ guide to exploring Test Valley Produced by Test Valley Borough Council in association with Hampshire County Council Countryside Service and the Hampshire Ramblers. 2 Test Valley is fortunate not only to have the longest river in Hampshire, beautiful countryside, a host of charming villages but also 500 miles of rights of way and fantastic open spaces to explore. Danebury Hillfort is owned by Hampshire County Council and Chilbolton Common by the Parish Council. Stockbridge Down, Stockbridge Marsh, Plaitford Common and Mottisfont House are owned by the National Trust. Broughton Down, a local nature reserve and Harewood Forest add ecological and historical Stcid Dw fascination and should not be missed. Msf H Danebury Hillfort 3 Whether you are visiting Test Valley, or already live here, this guide will help you make the most of the countless opportunities to explore the area on foot. It will also point you in the direction for many other walks. DID YOU KNOW Test Valley has more Iron Age Hillforts than anywhere else in Hampshire? Scan the horizon from the vantage of Danebury Hill. On a clear day, it is said you can see at least 5 other hillforts, including Bury Hill to the north, Quarley in the west and Woolbury on Stockbridge Down to the east. All of these fascinating places are accessible to you. Imagine what it may have been like thousands of years ago when Test Valley was a very different place. Its two Roman roads, The Icknield Way and Portway, cast striking lines on the map and are traced in today’s landscape by footpaths, hedgelines and banks.

This statement is submitted to the Local Plan Inquiry by way further explanation of the issues affecting access to the shores of the River Hamble. Reference should be made to the plan below where the only six points of public access as of right to the River Hamble are identified. At the northernmost point of access there is about 100 metres of river frontage available. The next two going south are points overlooking the marshes but give no river access. The next point of access going south is to a part of a marina. Most residents and visitors only get to access the River on the west bank (through lack of knowledge of the above) at the next point going south because that is the village river frontage and ferry point.
