Note
on Location:
The road through Catisfield was once a main route between Fareham
/ Portsmouth and the west. Samuel Pepys probably rode through it
on his travels as did Margaret of Anjou on her way from her wedding confirmation with Henry
VI at Titchfield Abbey at the bottom of Fishers Hill. Once an independent hamlet, it has become adjoined to the town of Fareham. It is part of two Conservation Areas, one of which protects part of the pleasant Catisfield Lane and the other covering the land going down to the Meon River and the historic Titchfield Abbey. The Meon is a very attractive little river which flows into the sea (the Solent in fact) less than 3 miles away. See: Catisfield - More about where it is |
