    PAPERS AND PROCEEDINGS 119 THE DISTRIBUTION OF THE ROMANO - BRITISH POPULATION IN THE BASINGSTOKE AREA. By SHIMON APPLEBAUM, BXITT., D.PHIL. 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.

    4. Test and Bourne Valley General Description The River Test and the Bourne Rivulet rise from the underlying chalk beds and dissect the North Wessex Downs character area. The valleys contain many woodland blocks and narrow woodland belts, which together with the sloping valley sides, form an enclosed landscape. The valleys widen and the landscape becomes more open, as the two rivers converge to the southwest of Whitchurch. Settlements are frequent along the valley floor and are characteristically linear in nature. The Bourne Valley lies within the North Wessex Downs AONB. Landscape The valleys cut through an underlying geology of chalk beds, with small areas of clay deposits on higher ground. Alluvial loams and valley gravels have been deposited by the rivers in the valley bottoms, resulting in vegetation that is very different from that of the surrounding chalkland. The valleys have flat floodplains with braided channels, watercress beds and water meadows used for grazing. The sloping valley sides are mostly used for pasture and arable farming. Small blocks of woodland are The River Test, Freefolk found throughout, particularly on the steeper valley sides where Beech and Ash predominate. Next to the rivers, there are many linear bands of Willow and Alder, together with some commercial Poplar plantations. Larger woodland blocks are found in and around the listed parkland landscapes of Laverstoke Park and Hurstbourne Park. Hedgerows contain chalk-loving species such as Dogwood, Wayfaring Tree, Spindle, Privet, Field Maple and Hazel. The main roads run along valley floors and lower valley sides. Minor roads are relatively infrequent and tend to cross the valleys at right angles.
