Hawkley is a small village and civil parish in the district of East Hampshire, set on the high chalk ridges of the South Downs and close to the market town of Petersfield in Hampshire. Its elevated position gives sweeping countryside views and a sense of classic downland England, with scattered farmsteads and a compact village core.
The parish is notable for the nearby ancient woodland known as Hawkley Hangers, an SSSI of steep, beech‑dominated slopes, and for being popular with walkers and nature lovers. Local life still revolves around agriculture and a small but active community, anchored by a historic village church and regular local events, while rural tourism and footpath networks bring visitors enjoying panoramic views that can reach towards the Solent and the Isle of Wight on clear days.
