run from north to south at a distance of seven or eight miles from the eastern border [of the county]. They approach the North Downs near Odiham, and the South Downs near Petersfield. They are not of great elevation; but some of them are very steep, and, from the overhanging woods on their sides, are called 'Hangers.' The best known of the hills are the Hawkley and Selborne hangers, and the Nore Hill, all near Selborne.
