Bishop Walkelin begins work on a completely new cathedral at Winchester in 1079.

Much of the limestone used to build the structure is brought across from the Isle of Wight from quarries around Binstead.

Nearby Quarr Abbey draws its name from these workings, as do many local places such as Stonelands and Stonepitts.
