Laverstoke is a small rural parish in the borough of Basingstoke and Deane in Hampshire, England, set beside the clear chalk stream of the River Test. The landscape is typical of north Hampshire with rolling downland, farmland and riverside meadows, and the parish feels quietly connected to nearby towns such as Whitchurch, making it popular with walkers and those seeking a peaceful countryside setting not far from larger centres.
Historically the village grew up around Laverstoke Mill, a former paper mill famous for producing banknote paper, and in recent years the mill complex has been given a new lease of life as a craft distillery and visitor centre, helping to put the parish on the map for both heritage and food-and-drink tourism. The community retains a rural, village character with an emphasis on conservation of the chalk-stream environment and local events that reflect its agricultural and industrial past.
