Boarhunt (/ˈbɒrənt/) is a village and civil parish in the City of Winchester district of Hampshire, England, about 2 miles (3 kilometres) north-east of Fareham. The name of the village is a corruption of burh funta, the funta, (stream) by the fort (burh).[2]

The settlement is mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, when there were 27 households.[3] Hall House in Boarhunt was dismantled in 1970 and reconstructed at the Weald and Downland Living Museum in West Sussex in 1981.[4]

Church

[edit | edit source]

The village church is dedicated to St Nicholas; it is almost completely Saxon in its structure with its font probably dating to the same period.[5] The building has been dated as having been constructed in 1064.[6] Further work appears to have taken place in the 13th century.[5] In 1577 a monument to Ralph Henslowe was added to the interior.[5] A general restoration was carried out in 1853 at which point a bell turret was added and the current furnishings were fitted.[5]
