Broughton, Stockbridge

Location:
Broughton is a traditional English village in the truest sense, with a genuine community feel and excellent amenities for anyone seeking an idyllic rural lifestyle.  There is a community store providing grocery, newsagent, and Post Office services, a primary school, two public houses, sports field and pavilion, village hall, church dating from the 13th century, doctors' surgery and bus service.  Broughton is surrounded by the stunning undulating landscape of Hampshire's Test Valley and is convenient for access to Stockbridge (5 miles), Romsey (10 miles), Andover (13 miles), Salisbury (13 miles) and Winchester (15 miles).  Grateley (7 miles) is ideal for commuters as it provides a direct rail link to London Waterloo in around 80 minutes.  Throughout the region are excellent schools in both the private and public sectors, and there are miles of footpaths and bridleways meandering through the peaceful and tranquil countryside.  Of particular note is a bridge at the end of the lane that crosses over The Wallop Brook leading to the Clarendon Way, a favourite for village dog walkers.
