Berwick St James history
Yarnbury Castle, an Iron Age hillfort, is partly within the parish. In the Domesday Book of 1086, estates at Berwick and Asserton were part of Winterbourne Stoke. In 1377, Berwick St. James had 80 poll-tax payers and there were 27 at Asserton.
Assserton
Asserton was a village or hamlet with its own church or chapel in medieval times. In 1557 Asserton manor was granted to James Basset, a courtier to Queen Mary. Asserton House was built in the late 18th century and rebuilt in the 19th century.
Lake Down Aerodrome
Lake Down Aerodrome was one of several Training Depot Stations created in the area to support the rapid expansion of the Royal Flying Corps. The airfield’s six hangars and other buildings were removed and the railway was dismantled. A water tower, engine shed and workshop survive.
