About The Village Of Hannington

Hannington lies between Basingstoke and Newbury.   It is situated on top of the Hampshire Downs, and is in the North Wessex Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.   

In every direction, the landscape falls away sharply from the village, with the Test Valley to the south and the Thames Basin to the north.  

The village of Hannington is isolated within the landscape; the nearest settlement of any size is Kingsclere, three miles away.

Wolverton, the nearest village, is separated from Hannington by about two miles of open countryside.  

It is a Conservation Area with a boundary that includes all but the most southern area of the village of Hannington.   The population of the village in 1998 was approximately 220, of which approximately 160 lived within the boundaries of the Conservation Area.
