with Angela Rippon
Beneath the Beechwood Hanger
Tucked away in the shadow of a hanging beechwood is the village of Selborne - almost immortalised in the works of one country writer, GILBERT WHITE. Every day for over 40 years he made an entry in his journal, leaving a unique record of the social and natural history of this small part of Hampshire.
Angela is joined by Bernard Price, Richard Mabey and Roger Love -grove in the parish of this 18th-century curate. From his church in the heart of the village, they wander through the timeless hollow lanes to the colourful autumnal umbrella of the beechwood itself.

' Irish people don't object to a little bit of showing off (nor do I) and it comes out in their architecture.'
