Early in the 12th century, Clatford manor was given to the Benedictine abbey of Saint-Victor-en-Caux (Saint-Victor-l'Abbaye, Seine-Maritime) together with land at Hullavington, some 18 miles (29 km) to the northwest. The small Clatford Priory, at times called Hullavington Priory, continued until the 15th century.[1]

In the 14th century Clatford was comparable in size with the neighbouring village of Manton; in 1801 there were 122 inhabitants.[2] Today Clatford is a rural community made up of Clatford Hall with Clatford Farm, several houses clustered around a crossroads and several other houses spread further out.

Clatford Hall dates from the later 16th century and is Grade II* listed.[3]

Clatford is in the civil parish of Preshute.
