- Buriton abstract "Buriton is a village and civil parish in the East Hampshire district of Hampshire, England, 2 miles (3.3 km) south of Petersfield.It lies at the foot of the South Downs escarpment, just east of the A3 road. One kilometre to the south rises the tree-covered hill of Head Down (205 m), one of the highest points of the South Downs and flanked on either side by two other high points, War Down (244 m) and Oakham Hill (202 m).The nearest railway station is 2 miles (3.3 km) north of the village, at Petersfield.The village boasts two tennis courts, two pubs - The Five Bells and the The Maple Inn, a village hall, a large village pond with ducks and fish, a car park and the Church of St. Mary. There is no shop in the village. The village has its own school, \"Buriton Primary School\", with about 80 pupils from the village and nearby.The main roads of Buriton are called High Street and Petersfield Road.It is a rural, peaceful place, with the possible exception of the main railway line, the Portsmouth to London line (Portsmouth Direct Line). The railway tunnel which carries the line under the South Downs is visible from the recreation ground. There is a pedestrian crossing over the railway at this point which the trains 'hoot' for as a warning to those crossing the line. There is also a path under the railway bridge from South Lane. Both paths lead to the walks around the disused chalk pits. Although for centuries the village was deemed of more importance than neighbouring Petersfield, Buriton never obtained its own railway station (aside from Woodcroft Halt, built during World War II for naval personnel), because the gradient in the area was deemed too steep to allow a station to be constructed.It is near the South Downs Way, with several paths that join it, making it very popular with walkers. As well, the Sussex Border Path also passes through South Harting close by. Buriton also lies adjacent to the Queen Elizabeth Country Park and since 2011 it has been within the South Downs National Park.The local landowners until recent times were the Bonham-Carters who owned land surrounding Buriton and neighbouring villages where they often reared game for local shoots. The Legg family were gamekeepers for the Bonham-Carters for many years. Other forms of employment in the past have been in the local Lime Kilns which closed in 1920. Hop picking was also another form of employment in the past. Today, Buriton remains a pleasant and quiet village with a very strong sense of its own identity. Employment needs are met outside the village.Edward Gibbon, author of the classic Decline and fall of the Roman Empire, among other works, lived at Buriton Manor for much of the second half of the eighteenth century.".
