LOCATION
Stanford Dingley is regarded as one of Berkshire’s most beautiful and much prized villages, enjoying a particularly scenic and timeless setting in the Pang Valley. It boasts a long history with its Mill first mentioned in the Domesday Book. Other notable buildings include The Bull a 15th century old coaching Inn which has a wealth of old beams, the 18th Century Old Boot Inn, and the parish church of St Denys which dates back to the 13th century with possible earlier origins.
Throughout the village there are numerous attractive houses and cottages and several scheduled buildings, not least including the Old Rectory, a splendid Georgian house of mellow red brick. From the village there are good road communications providing ease of access to Reading, Newbury and to Oxford from the A34 & M4 (junctions 12 & 13). For Train commuters there are mainline stations at Pangbourne on Thames and Theale providing fast services up to London(Paddington) in well under the hour.
The village owes its name to William De Standford, who was a lord of the manor in 1224 and to Richard Dyneley mentioned in 1428 as the son of William Dyneley Esq, the bodyguard to Henry VI. Throughout the ages industries have thrived in Stanford Dingley including a tannery based originally on ample supplies of oak bark, a smithy and more recently there was a bottle factory near the bridge, with its products occasionally found in the surrounding gardens.
Bradfield College, the well-known Public School located a few miles from Stanford Dingley, has excellent leisure, fitness and sports facilities including a large indoor swimming pool all of which are available for use by members of the public. The facilities also include squash, badminton and tennis courts, hockey and a 9-hole golf course.
The area is also extremely well served by an excellent range of both state and private schooling, of particular note; St Andrews, Bradfield College, Pangbourne College, Downe House, Elstree, Cranford House, Moulsford Preparatory, Abingdon Boys and The School of St Helen & Katharine.
