East Hanney is a village, and civil parish on Letcombe Brook about Шаблон:Convert north of Wantage. Historically East and West Hanney were formerly a single ecclesiastical parish of Hanney.[1] East Hanney was part of Berkshire until the 1974 boundary changes transferred the Vale of White Horse to Oxfordshire.

Churches

East Hanney had a chapel by 1288, dedicated to Saint James, but Alice Yate is said to have dissolved it after she took over the manor in 1546.[1] The present Church of England parish church of Saint James the Less[1] was designed by the Gothic Revival architect George Edmund Street in a 13th century English style and built in 1856.[2] It has since been made redundant and converted into a private home. Hanney Chapel is Non-conformist and was built in 1862.[3] It was closed after the First World War but reopened in 1943.[3]

Economic history

Dandridge's Mill is a Georgian water mill built in the 1820s as a silk mill.[4] It is a Grade II Listed building but after it ceased working it became derelict.[4] In 2007 it was restored as four private apartments.[4] It is a low-carbon redevelopment with a number of sources of renewable energy, including an Archimedean screw[4] on the millstream that powers the property's own electricity generator.

Amenities

East Hanney has a public house, the Black Horse[5] free house. There is also a branch of the Royal British Legion. Hanney War Memorial Hall includes a village shop with sub-Post Office.
