Braishfield, Romsey

Location:
Braishfield is one of the area's most highly sought-after country villages, well known for its close-knit community spirit and famed for being the home of Wurzel Gummidge.  There are a range of traditional village conveniences including a high-achieving primary school, church, social club, village hall, and an award-winning local community shop and delicatessen.  Close to the beautiful Test Valley and the world-renowned Hillier Gardens, it lies just north of the delightful market town of Romsey with a wide range of amenities and a train station.  Braishfield has a successful football club formed in 1907, one of the oldest strictly amateur clubs in England, a cricket club and two popular village pubs.  The beautiful surrounding countryside is a must-see for both walkers and cyclists.
