    Bishopstone Facts – Did you know…

    1. Abbey Days
      Eagled-eyed viewers will recognise nearby Highclere Castle as the prime location of TV’s Downton Abbey. The house is open to visitors.
    2. Bit Grim
      To the south of the village is Grim’s Ditch, an Iron Age earthwork used to defend against attackers.
    3. Watercress
      Watercress has traditionally been grown across the area. The chalk streams provide a near constant 50°F which is perfect for the crop.
    4. One Parish
      The parish was originally made up of 6 distinct villages, which can still be spotted in the street names; Bishopstone, Netton, Flamston, Throope, Faulston and Croucheston.
    5. Shoe Business
      Along with farming and watercress, the village once had a thriving shoe making business. The factory owner built Bridge House (now one of 17 listed buildings) and cottages to house his workers.
    6. History
      The Chalke Valley History Festival is a huge event that really does bring history to life. Visitors can enjoy a sword school, air displays, battle enactments, living camps and more. Past speakers have included Ian Hislop, Dan Snow and Al Murray.
    7. Outstanding!
      Nestled in the stunning Chalke Valley, part of the Cranbourne Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The River Chalke and River Ebble flow through the valley and have powered mills and watered farmland for thousands of years.
