Eastrop & Grove is an inner-suburban ward in the borough of Basingstoke and Deane, in Hampshire, England, sitting close to the Basingstoke town centre. It is perhaps best known for Eastrop Park, a popular green space with a boating lake, formal planting and recreational paths that act as a local focus for families and weekend events.

The area mixes older terraces and post‑war housing with more recent developments, reflecting Basingstoke’s growth through the 20th century. Local schools, shops and community facilities give it a residential feel, while good links into Basingstoke town centre and its retail and employment hubs mean many residents combine neighbourhood life with work elsewhere in the town.
