Geocache Description:



The present Parish was divided in the 13th century into the Manors of Clements Hall and Hawkwell Hall. The Manor of Clements took its name from a family to whom it belonged. Philip Clement owned it in 1440. Eventually after changes over many years the house came into the possession of Thomas White, F.R.S. He contributed materially to his brother the Rev.Gilbert White’s Natural History of Selborne - a very well known book. His grandson, Algernon Holt White gave land for the Hawkwell National School to be built in 1846. The jurisdiction of the Manor of Hawkwell Hall became extinct and Hawkwell Hall is now a farm and is situated across the road from St. Mary’s Church. The present house, a timber framed, weather boarded building, is 16th century and had a restored fireplace with a carved wooden over mantel and some 17th century panelling.The cache is located just off the bridleway which can be muddy at times.
