Northney is a hamlet located in the Borough of Havant in Hampshire, England, which is situated on the western side of Hayling Island. Northney has a long and rich history, with evidence of human settlement in the area dating back centuries.

The hamlet is first mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, where it is listed as the 'manor of Norhune'. The name is believed to have derived from 'North-Heah', Old English for 'north-facing hill'. The area was a thriving agricultural community at the time, with many small farms and cottages scattered across the landscape.

In the 18th century, Northney underwent a period of expansion and development as the area became increasingly popular with wealthy Londoners looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the city. A number of grand estates were built, including Northney House, an impressive Georgian residence which still stands today and serves as a reminder of the area's affluent past.

The hamlet's proximity to Portsmouth Harbour also attracted a number of wealthy merchants and sea captains, who built large houses in the area. This period of growth and prosperity came to an end in the 19th century with the advent of industrialisation, which saw the area become increasingly industrialised with the construction of a number of factories and businesses.

Today, Northney is a small and peaceful hamlet, with a population of just under 400 people. The main industry is agriculture, with a number of small farms and market gardens in the area. The hamlet is also home to a number of pubs and restaurants, as well as a marina and a sailing club.

The area is popular with visitors and locals alike, with a number of attractions in and around Northney. The hamlet's location on the western side of Hayling Island provides easy access to beautiful beaches and stunning coastal walks, as well as a range of watersports opportunities.
