Crondall (/krʌndəl/) is a village and large civil parish in the Hart district, in the north east of Hampshire in England, in the Crondall Hundred surveyed in the Domesday Book of 1086.[2] The village is on the gentle slopes of the low western end of the North Downs range, and 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. A large collection of Anglo-Saxon and Merovingian coins found in the parish has become known as the Crondall Hoard. In 2021 the parish had a population of 1724.
