Herriard is a small rural village and civil parish in the district of Basingstoke and Deane, in Hampshire, England, set in gently rolling north‑Hampshire countryside. The settlement retains a historic feel with clusters of old farmsteads, period cottages and a parish church, and the surrounding landscape of hedged fields and lanes makes it popular for walking and equestrian activity while remaining within easy reach of larger towns such as Basingstoke.
The local economy is traditionally agricultural but today combines farming with small local businesses and many residents who commute further afield. Community life is quietly active: a village hall, occasional events and a parish council help sustain a close‑knit rural identity, and the area’s historic estates and woodlands add to the parish’s longstanding countryside character.
