Eye & Dunsden
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Eye & Dunsden is a largely rural civil parish in the English county of Oxfordshire.
It includes the villages of Sonning Eye, Dunsden Green and Playhatch and borders on the River Thames with the village of Sonning in Berkshire connected via Sonning Bridge just over the river to the south. Before 1866, Eye & Dunsden was part of the trans-county parish of Sonning.
To the west, it abuts the growing Berkshire town of Reading. To the east lies the Oxfordshire parish of Shiplake. Sonning Common and the relatively newly created parish of Binfield Heath lie to the north.
The Redgrave Pinsent Rowing Lake, Reading Sailing Club and Isis Water Ski Club are all on the Thames flood plain within the parish. Eye & Dunsden also includes attractively wooded parts of the Chiltern Hills.
