Preston Candover history

---

The village of Preston Candover is probably of Saxon origin. It was originally called Prestecandavere, the Candover belonging to the Priests. The name derives from a religious community which flourished here before the Norman Conquest.

Victorian times

By Victorian times Preston Candover and Nutley had a population of over 500 people. The land was divided between six main farms, ranging in size from 200 to 1,000 acres (4.0 km) The village at Preston formed a long straggling settlement.

1901 to the present

A major change in the appearance of the village occurred in the 1920s at the point where the Basingstoke–Alresford road met the road to Wield. Previously there had been just a pond lying at the fork in the road. A memorial was erected in 1919 in honour of the 16 men of the parish killed in action during the Great War.
