The name is derived from the Old English grēat lēah, meaning 'great wood or clearing'.[2] The village is divided into two distinct settlements, {{convert|0.75|mi|km}} apart: the old village and a newer settlement built around the railway station on the West of England Main Line.[3] The hamlet of Palestine adjoins the railway station settlement, although it is located in the civil parish of Over Wallop.[4] Grateley lies just to the south of the prehistoric hill fort of Quarley Hill. The parish covers {{convert|1551|acre|km2}} with 616 people[5] living in 250 dwellings. The village has two shops, two pubs, a thirteenth-century church dedicated to St Leonard, a primary school, a school for children with Aspergers Syndrome, a railway station, a small business park, a golf driving range, and is surrounded by farmland with ancient footpaths and droveways. King Æthelstan issued his first official law code in Grateley in about 930 AD.[6]In the 20th century Grateley was one of many ammunition dumps during the World Wars.[7] The economic history of Grateley is agricultural, but less than 10% of the village population now rely upon agriculture as an occupation.{{Citation needed|date=July 2009}} Notes1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.neighbourhood.statistics.gov.uk/dissemination/LeadKeyFigures.do?a=7&b=11123848&c=Grateley&d=16&e=62&g=6431732&i=1001x1003x1032x1004&o=362&m=0&r=1&s=1482068870080&enc=1|title=Civil Parish population 2011|accessdate=18 December 2016|publisher=Office for National Statistics |work=Neighbourhood Statistics}} 2. ^{{cite web | url=http://kepn.nottingham.ac.uk/map/place/Hampshire/Grateley | title=Grateley, Hampshire | publisher=University of Nottingham | work=Key to English Place Names}} 3. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.grateley.org/introduction.html | title=Introduction | publisher=Grateley Parish Council}} 4. ^{{cite map | publisher=streetmap.co.uk | title=Map of Grateley, Hampshire | url=http://www.streetmap.co.uk/idld.srf?x=427307&y=140690&z=115&sv=427307,140690&st=4&ar=Y&mapp=idld.srf&searchp=s.srf&dn=698&ax=427500&ay=141500&lm=0 |cartography=Ordnance Survey | accessdate=July 19, 2012}} 5. ^{{cite web | url=http://neighbourhood.statistics.gov.uk/dissemination/viewFullDataset.do?instanceSelection=03070&productId=779&$ph=60_61&datasetInstanceId=3070&startColumn=1&numberOfColumns=4&containerAreaId=790412 | title=Neighbourhood Statistics (Test Valley Borough) | publisher=Office for National Statistics | accessdate=July 29, 2012}} 6. ^{{cite journal | url=http://www.ryanlavelle.net/Lavelle-WhyGrateley.pdf | title=Why Grateley?
