Located in Hampshire the village of Barton Stacey originates from Saxon Times although Iron Age implements were found close by as evidence that there was an earlier settlement here. There is also evidence that the Romans used to travel close by on a route between Cirencester and Winchester and by Norman Times the parish is mentioned in the Domesday Book. Unfortunately, despite this long history, there are very few of the old buildings surviving today – for two reasons. Firstly there was a big fire in the village around the 1790’s and that destroyed much of the village, although the pub survived! The other reason for the lack of old buildings is that the village was owned by one family into the 20th century, the last owner of this family objecting to the taxes levied, which took one tenth of the revenue of his farms, allowed all the farms and buildings to fall into disrepair to the extent that Barton Stacey became known as a derelict village. It was the army that was to breathe new life into the village, around 1938 they requisitioned most of the surrounding land and estate for a training area and so Barton Stacey Camp was established. Today Barton Stacey has seen much of the army leave although they still retain much of the land around for training purposes. The homes the army once occupied are now homes for new families who make the village of Barton Stacey what it is today.
