East Tytherley is a small village in Hampshire, England.[1][2]
The name Tytherley comes from Old English and means thin or tender wood.[3]
The village was given to Queen Philippa by her husband Edward III in 1335. When the Black Death spread through London she moved her court to the village.
In more recent history William Fothergill Cooke invented the first commercial electrical telegraph whilst living in the village.
