Alton Amery is an electoral ward covering part of the market town of Alton in East Hampshire, Hampshire, England. It combines residential streets and pockets of small commercial and light‑industrial activity, with a typical southern English market‑town high street and commuter links into Winchester and London, making it a mix of long‑standing local life and people who travel for work.
The area sits close to attractive countryside and several conservation spots, with easy access to the rolling downs and village attractions such as nearby Chawton, known for its literary connections, and the wider South Downs National Park. Locally there’s a strong community feel, independent shops and clubs, and the usual layers of historic buildings and post‑war housing that give the ward a varied social and architectural character.
