Villages and Churches
St Peter, Charney Bassett
St Peter, Charney BassettThe village is situated in open country, on the River Ock and comprises a little over 100 houses.

Children under 11 Years of age attend school in the next village of East Hanney. Older pupils attend school in Wantage. The medieval Charney Manor, next to the church, is owned by the Quakers and used as a conference centre and guest house. There is an excellent relationship between the Manor and the Church.

St. Peter's church has some sections dating back to the 12th Century. A major restoration was undertaken some 10 years ago.
