Buriton Village & Church Visit

Thursday 25 June 2015
On a delightful summer’s evening, PAHS members met up with our guides, Doug Jones and Bob Wright.
Starting beside the pond, Doug explained its importance as a water source and its probable reason for the early settlement of the village. Archaeological evidence shows activity nearby from the Bronze Age and Roman times but it was first recorded by the Normans in the Domesday Book as part of the Manor of Mapledurham.
