Kingsley is a small village and civil parish in East Hampshire, Hampshire, England. It sits a few miles north‑east of Alton and close to Bordon, near the border with Surrey, and is set among the rolling chalk of the Hampshire Downs with areas of heathland and mixed woodland that make it popular for walking and countryside pursuits.
The settlement has medieval roots - its name deriving from Old English for a "king's clearing" - and retains a village feel with a parish church, village hall and local clubs. Historically the nearby Bordon garrison influenced local employment and housing; today the local economy is a mix of agriculture, small businesses and commuters who work in nearby towns, giving Kingsley a quiet, community‑focused character while remaining within reach of larger centres.
