I have lived in Everton my whole life. I love the village. I am a respectable citizen of Everton and have lived for nearly 18 years in Frys Lane.
I hope other people enjoy the atmosphere as much as I do.

Hampshire memories
Having lived at Downton from 1958, I grew up opposite Downton Holiday Camp.

Petersfield - A History & Celebration
And now to the greatest mystery: who were the people who raised the tumuli or burial mounds on Petersfield Heath during the Bronze Age some 1,000 years after the Stone Age? Today, Petersfield is home to one of the most numerous collections of Bronze Age burial mounds in England. Unfortunately, the planting of conifers on the mounds in Victorian times and the mixed tree growth of the last 50 years has successfully camouflaged the outline... [more]

Petersfield - A History & Celebration
MOST OF this first chapter has to be supposition, for the facts are few and far between, but certainly two requirements were just as important in the past as they are now in the 21st century: firstly, the lie of the land was and is still critical to a successful place to camp for the night; and secondly, man's intelligence was and is needed to make the right decisions...
