Hedge End is a town and civil parish in the borough of Eastleigh in Hampshire, on the eastern edge of the Southampton urban area in southern England; its proximity to the M27 and the River Hamble makes it a practical base for commuters and gives easy access to both coastal and countryside leisure.
Originally a small agricultural village, it expanded substantially in the 20th century and now combines suburban housing with retail parks, business estates and green spaces reclaimed from former gravel workings; active sports clubs, community groups and a compact high street help preserve a local community feel despite its commuter-town character.
