The Hampshire Village Book - The places, the people and their stories

The Hampshire Village Book is a celebration of the unique communities at the heart of a diverse and fascinating county. 

Compiled by the Women’s Institute, it gathers together descriptions of 150 villages, recalling the history, people and events that make each one unique, and how their collective identity has shaped Hampshire as a county.

From tranquil farmland, through chalkstream valleys, to the maritime villages of the coast, this is truly a region of contrasting lives and communities.

And despite the changes brought about by the modern age, these villages continue to thrive, providing a source of pride and delight to villagers and visitors alike.

The book will appeal to those who have lived in the county all their lives and those visiting for the first time.
