Table 1: Summary of assessment framework stages Stage Tasks 1: Idenfying the asset Establish what the asset comprises of. Consider to what extent the dockyard has influenced the presence and development of the asset. Establish which themac group(s) the asset belongs to (its relaonship with the dockyard). 2: Researching the asset Use documentary sources to further understand the asset’s relaonship to the dockyard, in‐ cluding influences on its development. Examine historic maps to place the asset in its surrounding context and to idenfy any changes that have occurred over me. Where possible, conduct a visual inspecon of the site complete with photographic record. 3: Assessing significance Consider the significance of the asset, including amongst other things its quality of survival, illustraon of the dockyard’s history, potenal to reveal more through further study.

    188 HAMPSHIRE FIELD CLUB BOTANICAL EXCURSION TO NOAR HILL N Wednesday, July 4th, a very successful excursion to Noar Hill in search of Orchids took place. This spot is very O little known ; it lies between Newton Valence and Empshott at an elevation of 696 feet, with beautiful views of all the country round. Old chalk diggings, overgrown with turf, form the happy hunting-ground for a large number of wild flowers.' A short local history thus speaks of it : " There was a hamlet or manor of Cures (a clerical error for Oures) lying within the Hundred of Selborne held by the wealthy Benedictine Abbey of Hyde at Winchester. In 1275, and again in 1334, it figures in the Hundred Rolls as the Manor of Ores held of the King ' in chief' by the Abbey ' in perpetual alms ' ; the little Manor remained in the possession of the Abbey till the Dissolution." Gilbert White writes of " Nore Hill, a noble chalk promontory, remarkable for sending forth two streams into two different seas.
