Anna Valley and Upper Clatford are neighbouring villages in the heart of Test Valley, Hampshire, England, just a short hop from the market town of Andover. They sit alongside the chalk-stream River Anton and close to the famous River Test, so the landscape is characterised by water meadows, good fishing and a patchwork of footpaths that make the area popular with walkers and wildlife enthusiasts.
Both settlements have long histories with roots in milling and small-scale farming, reflected in a mix of attractive older buildings and converted former industrial sites; today they combine a strong local community spirit - village halls, a pub or two and regular events - with a substantial commuter population working in larger towns. The setting in the Test Valley gives them ecological and recreational significance, and local conservation efforts often focus on protecting the chalk-stream habitats and traditional riverside meadows.
