  • Lowland Mosaic
    15. LANDSCAPE TYPE 8: LOWLAND MOSAIC Location and Boundaries 15.1. The landscape type comprises a lowland area in the eastern part of the AONB intervening between the two main chalk upland blocks to the north and south and lying to either side of the Kennet Valley (7A). The boundaries are essentially defined by geology with the change from the chalk to the Tertiary deposits of the Reading Beds, the Bagshot Beds and London Clay. In the north the chalk descends as a gradual dipslope (2A: Brightwalton Downs & 2B: Ashampstead Downs), while to the south it rises as a dramatic escarpment (2D: Walbury Hill - Watership Downs Scarp). The geological transition within this landscape type is clearly marked by the lower topography and the land cover of woodland and pasture. Overview The lowland mosaic is a distinct landscape in the eastern part of the North Wessex Downs occupying the low lying basin of gravel beds and clays which rise either side of the Kennet Valley. The area has a strong woodland character, with its origins as part of the medieval forests. In the early 17th century the forests were subject to gradual piecemeal enclosure, the legacy of which is reflected in numerous dispersed small settlements and farms. Today the area is characterised by irregular fields, cut out from the woodland during the medieval or post medieval period, interspersed with parcels of woodland and commons. Although in some areas, a more open landscape dominated by large-scale arable farmland is found. One of the most densely inhabited parts of the North Wessex Downs, this lowland area has a diverse range of settlements ranging from large manor houses associated with the many parklands to the network of hamlets, lines of houses and villages that occur along the lanes and roads.

  • Countryside Walks
    Countryside Walks 1) Highclere Park Public Walk. Access: From Highclere Estate Main Entrance at Whitway, please note there is no parking on site or access for vehicles. Open: Throughout the year. Dogs: Must be kept on a lead. Description: This footpath runs from the main castle entrance (off the A34- see map) through the estate to the Andover Road. Beginning at the main entrance, you walk down the drive, catching glimpses of the castle towards the crossroads. At the crossroads the footpath turns right through the park for about ½ mile. It then turns left to go down to the Cemetery Chapel. You then walk though Highclere wood before joining the Andover Road near Highclere Street. Countryside Walks 2) Beacon Hill Public Footpath Access: From Whitway Road, off the A34 Open: Throughout the year. Dogs: Must be kept on a lead. Description: The Estate continues to lease Beacon Hill to Hampshire County Council as an area of open access. From the car park at the foot of the hill, it is a steep climb to the top from which the views of the surrounding downlands are superb. The 5th Earl of Carnarvon (who discovered the tomb of Tutankhamun) is buried at the top which makes Beacon Hill an area of outstanding interest as well as beauty. You can see the remains of the Iron Age Fort and look into the bowl of the grassy landscape that was used for sheep grazing for over 1000 years before the 5th Earl created a horse stud there. Countryside Walks 3) Old Burghclere Public Footpath.
