About the Book

Wallington village in Hampshire lies adjacent to the town of Fareham, but its rich history and heritage goes back millennia. Despite encroaching development, the heart of the village remains strong, with its large water meadow and the picturesque river that snakes through it, past two ancient village pubs and a host of historical cottages and listed buildings. In Wallington: History of a Hampshire Village author and local historian Danny Glavin has unearthed a wealth of information, oral histories, and images to reveal Wallington’s past, which spans back to the Mesolithic and Neolithic dwellers, through the Bronze Age and Iron Age, Roman farmsteads, Anglo-Saxon settlements and the medieval period all the way to the modern era. The village’s industries stocked the Naval fleet for over three centuries and later helped the development of the building industry during the Industrial Revolution in Britain and abroad, as far away as South Africa. In the twentieth century the village fort was home to the first wave of soldiers to fight in France in the First World War, and Wallington played an important part in the D-Day operations during the Second World War. The lives of inhabitants of the village who played their part in all these stories are also revealed and historical buildings that have been lost today are also remembered. This fascinating history of Wallington will be of interest to all those who have lived in the village or know it well.
