Oxney Stream is an older name for the upper River Slea, Hampshire – an east-flowing river – applied between Kingsley Mill and Sleaford.[1] The lower part is a foremost tributary of the upper River Wey's long south branch.
The stream has no source of its own, it is so-named after the confluence of the Kingsley and the longer Oakhanger streams, the latter's source and route being the village part of the north of the very large parish of Selborne.
