Sherfield Park is a modern civil parish in the borough of Basingstoke and Deane, in Hampshire, England, sitting between Basingstoke and the older village of Sherfield on Loddon. It occupies a largely residential estate built on former farmland with the River Loddon and surrounding green corridors providing a semi-rural feel; good road links (notably the M3) and proximity to Basingstoke make it popular with commuters to the town, Reading and London.
Created as a distinct community in the 21st century, Sherfield Park is characterised by family housing, a primary school, local shops and a community centre, with an active parish council and regular local events. Although largely a commuter settlement economically, it retains connections to the Loddon valley’s history and countryside through footpaths, hedgerows and nearby villages, giving it a mix of suburban convenience and rural character.
