Rowner Our Home
Rowner is a village on the Gosport peninsula in Hampshire, set in 200 hectares of woodland known as The Alver Valley Country Park.
Its 67 acre Wildgrounds Nature Reserve is a Site Of Special Scientific Interest, owing to its ancient oak trees and diversity of fauna such as oak gall wasps, purple emperor butterflies, and green tortrix moths.
The River Alver passes through the valley where it is crossed at Apple Dumpling Bridge, whose name is said to derive from the apple dumplings sold to soldiers by a lady at the bridge during the Crimea war. Carter's Copse, which was named after the Reverend Richard Foster-Carter (1810-1876), boasts the oldest known fortification in Gosport, a Motte and Bailey from the 11th century, which is now a Scheduled Ancient Monument.
Legend claims a poacher by the name of Rabbit Skin Jack, haunts the Copse, after hanging himself by his boot laces in Dead Man's Hollow. At the bottom of the Motte or mound is a Second World War Pill Box, which was erected to protect Grange Airfield (now HMS Sultan), which existed from July 1914 to December 1958. The airfield became the home of the Royal Flying Corp and the base for the Special School Of Flying.
