Crondall is a village and large, rural civil parish in the Hart District in the northeast of Hampshire. The village is on gentle slopes of the low western end of the North Downs range, has the remains of a Roman villa. Despite the English Reformation, Winchester Cathedral (or its Dean and Chapter) held the chief manors representing much of its land from 975 until 1861.
