East Hanney is a small village in the Vale of White Horse district of Oxfordshire, England, lying a few miles east of Wantage and north‑west of Didcot. It sits on the edge of the fertile vale amid arable fields and minor watercourses, with the nearby River Ock and a generally flat, rural landscape that has shaped local life for centuries.
Historically part of Berkshire until boundary changes in 1974, East Hanney retains a strong village community feel with local clubs, a village hall and periodic events; agriculture remains visible around the village while many residents now commute to nearby towns for work, giving a mix of long‑standing local character and more recent commuter influences.
