Country Life - The River Test
Loading...
The River Test.
The writer explores the River Test from the Broadlands Estate in the south to The Silk Mill at Whitchurch in the north.
The history of the area includes the legends of the Cockatrice at Wherwell and the Chilbolton Giant.
Environmental concerns are discussed, in particular the balance between the needs of the valleys farmers and the need for pure clear water for the trout fishing.
The descriptions of the Mills, Public Houses and scenic views along the Test Valley include many mentions of the Wherwell and Chilbolton area.
