Playhatch

Playhatch

Playhatch (also known as Play Hatch) is a small village in the English county of Oxfordshire.

The village is part of the civil parish of Eye & Dunsden, with the villages of Sonning Eye and Dunsden Green, at the very southernmost tip of Oxfordshire, on the A4155 road between the towns of Reading and Henley-on-Thames. Before 1866, it formed part of the Oxfordshire section of Sonning civil parish.

Attractions

Even though this is a tiny village, there are three public houses:
* "The Crown", a 16th century coaching inn
* "The Flowing Spring", a short way north-east on the A4155 road
* "The Shoulder of Mutton"

Close by to the south is the Redgrave-Pinsent Rowing Lake.
