Colemore and Priors Dean is a very small, rural civil parish in East Hampshire, Hampshire, England, set on the rolling chalk downland and wooded valleys typical of the area. The two hamlets of Colemore and Priors Dean sit amid farmland and quiet lanes a short drive from Petersfield and close to the South Downs National Park, making it a peaceful spot popular with walkers and those seeking countryside tranquillity.
The parish is notable for its strong sense of historic character: Priors Dean retains earthworks and the remains of a medieval church and settlement, while Colemore shows traditional rural architecture and long‑standing farming activity. There are few services locally, so community life tends to centre on occasional local events and nearby market towns, and the local economy remains based largely on agriculture, smallholdings and rural tourism.
