The village of East Meon sits in the valley of the River Meon in East Hampshire, Hampshire, England, tucked against the chalk downland of the South Downs. It has deep Saxon and Norman roots - the 12th‑century St Andrew’s church and a medieval street pattern are still apparent - and the surrounding water meadows and chalk stream are characteristic of the Meon Valley.
Historically an agricultural community, East Meon today combines farming with local services, tourism and a number of commuters, and is noted for its thatched cottages, village green and rural walks. A lively community spirit persists with a village hall, annual fêtes and clubs, and the location makes it popular with walkers and nature lovers exploring the Downs and riverside routes.
