A sought after and historic location that has been valued since the Doomsday Book when it was held by Walter Gifard, a preeminent Norman baron who helped William the Conqueror win the Battle of Hastings, West Hanney retains its significance today. Situated off the main Oxford to Wantage road in the Vale of the White Horse, Wantage is five miles to the south and there are excellent train and road links. Didcot Parkway provides an hourly, non-stop commuter service to London Paddington and the M4, M40 and A34 are all within easy reach.

    East and West Hanney Neighbourhood Plans Hanney History Group Feedback

    East and West Hanney Neighbourhood Plans Hanney History Group Feedback 1. Format At a Hanney History Group talk some of the steering committee asked members of the History Group to answer three questions. These were sent back over the following few weeks. 2. Question 1- What do you like about East and West Hanney? The stream and surrounds- red brick cottages - reasonably quiet. Both villages have an attractive rural character and are still fairly small; they have grown up over centuries with a diversity of building styles and with plenty of green spaces between buildings (gardens, pasture, old orchards, etc.) and with the Letcombe Brook running through EH. The community woodland is a huge asset and I walk round the village most days and see a variety of interesting birds for example, a kingfisher along the brook and bullfinches in the woodland, occasionally a barn owl in early evening. I appreciate the feeling of wide open space as one walks between the villages and looks northwards. I would never have come to West Hanney 3.5 years ago had I known what would be proposed in the way of building developments. That it is a rural village with a wonderful community spirit. Local community spirit and village life style values. Surrounded by open countryside. Both are small separate villages - a mix of large and small dwellings, ranging in age from recent to several hundred years old; have traditional Manors, churches, pubs, mills, a stream, open fields, orchards, mixed farming, sports field, school, halls, active community with many clubs. Even has a community shop.

    In Respect of the Draft Vale of White Horse Local Plan 2031 Inspection (Stage Two)

    IN RESPECT OF THE DRAFT VALE OF WHITE HORSE LOCAL PLAN 2031 INSPECTION (STAGE TWO) ___________________________________________________________________ FURTHER REPRESENTATION ON BEHALF OF EAST HANNEY PARISH COUNCIL IN RESPECT OF MATTER 8.1: THE STRATEGIC HOUSING ALLOCATIONS ___________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION 1. This representation on behalf of the East Hanney Parish Council (“Parish Council”) relates to a discreet point in respect of Matter 8.1 (e): is Strategic Housing Allocation Site 6 (South of East Hanney) soundly based and deliverable? 2. This document should be read alongside the previous lengthy Representation dated 15 December 2014. 3. The Parish Council accepts the housing requirement figure of 20,000 homes over the plan period. There is plainly an urgent need for significant new housing, but the Parish Council remains firmly of the view that Site 6 is inappropriate and unacceptable. MERITS OF SITE 6 Where East Hanney Sits in the Hierarchy of Villages of the District 4. The 2011 Census showed that the village held 334 occupied households and a recorded population of only 748. 5. East Hanney was defined as a “larger village” by the skin of its teeth: the minimum threshold was 14 points and it scored 14 points. In fact, it obtained a point for having a mobile library service. Given that this service has now ceased, East Hanney only scores 13 and no longer meets the threshold for being characterised as a “larger village”. Oxfordshire County Council removed the mobile library facility from the village of East Hanney following their 2014 consultation as per their initial plan (appendix 1). In the table (annexe 1) of the Summary of the Outcome (appendix 2) of this consultation, it can be seen that East Hanney will no longer be visited.

  • Hanneys Website History Overview 3

    Hanneys Website History Overview 3

    A Brief History of the Hanney Villages The 7th century Hanney Brooch was found together with the burial of a high status female aged in her mid- twenties and a variety of other grave goods . People have been living in and around Hanney for at least 5,000 years. Recent archaeology, much of it undertaken in advance of proposed developments, has added greatly to our knowledge of early occupation in the area with Neolithic pottery, and Bronze Age and Iron age settlements. During the Roman occupation there was a lot of activity with a small settlement to the south of Summertown and a Roman road, possibly on the route of the A338, from Wantage to the religious site at Frilford and beyond to Alchester. Two major metal detector rallies in 2009 and 2010 on fields to the south and west of the villages found a small number of Bronze Age items, rather more from the Iron Age and a wealth from the Roman period. However, the most important find was of a 7th century Anglo-Saxon gold and garnet brooch which has become known as the Hanney Brooch and is the logo for Hanney News. The earliest written records of the area are from Saxon royal charters. One dated 968 A.D describes the gift of land to Abingdon Abbey by King Edgar. The boundaries within it almost entirely correspond to the present parish boundaries of East Hanney. Although no similar charter exists for West Hanney the Church of St. James the Great is thought to be of Saxon origins and to have been an early minster church, from which priests were sent out to other settlements.
