East Hampshire
§ This page provides an overview of a UK's local authority district, bringing together various information to help you better understand this district.
East Hampshire covers a largely rural landscape of rolling hills, villages, and historic towns. Petersfield, nestled within the South Downs National Park, is the main centre, with a market square, lake, and access to the surrounding countryside. Alton adds heritage with links to Jane Austen at nearby Chawton, while villages across the district feature traditional cottages and churches. The South Downs Way runs through, providing walking and cycling trails, while woodland, rivers, and farmland define its varied terrain.
The local authority for this district is: East Hampshire District Council - responsible for district-level services. Since Hampshire is a two-tier area, county-level services are handled by: Hampshire County Council.
