Buriton is a small village and civil parish in East Hampshire, Hampshire, England, tucked at the foot of the chalk ridge of the South Downs National Park and close to Butser Hill. Its scarpside setting gives dramatic views over downland and makes it a handy base for walking and cycling, with a landscape of chalk grassland, hedgerows and traditional flint‑built cottages.
Historically a rural, agricultural community, Buriton retains a strong village identity with a village hall, pubs and small local businesses while many residents commute to nearby Petersfield or beyond. The social life leans towards conservation and outdoor pursuits – the area’s biodiversity, access to downs and sense of living in a historic Hampshire village are often what draw people to the parish.
