Dummer is a parish and village in Hampshire , England. It is 6 miles south-west of Basingstoke and near Junction 7 on the M3 motorway .
In the 2001 census , it had a population of 643, with 127 dwellings,[2] reducing to a population of 466 in 201 households at the 2011 Census.[1]
History [ edit ]
The name of the village is derived from Dun (meaning hill) and Mer (lake or pond).[citation needed ] The English surname 'Dummer' is thought to originate from here, as the Dummer family were lords of the manor between the 12th and 16th centuries.[citation needed ]
All Saints Church is in the centre of the village.[3] The church is part of the Church of England benefice of Farleigh, Candover and Wield, served by the same Rector.
A public house, The Queen Inn, is north of the church on Down Street towards the M3.[4]
Also towards the M3 is the Dummer Golf Club, the course lying to the northeast of the village.[5]
On the other side of the M3 north of the A30 is the Dummer Garden Centre,[6] and a public house, The Sun Inn. A short distance south-west down the A30 is another public house and hotel, The Wheatsheaf.[7]
To the south-west of Dummer village by about 3 ⁄4 mile (1.2 km ) is Dummer Down Farm. This is the site of the Dummer Cricket Centre which was founded by Major Ronald Ferguson , father of Sarah, Duchess of York .[8] The current owner, Andrew Ferguson, was a local councillor on Dummer Parish Council.
Governance [ edit ]
