Welcome to Nova Hreod

 

Nova is Latin for “new” and also describes the way in which a white dwarf star comes to a fresh brightness and energy as hydrogen builds up on its surface.

Hreod is an ancient Saxon word meaning “reed”. The name comes from the “hreod burna” that is found in the Domesday Book describing the reed stream that is a tributary of the River Ray and that still runs through the valley in which Nova Hreod lies.
