Broughton in Test Valley, Hampshire, England is a small, quietly attractive rural village set amongst chalk downland and water meadows beside the River Test. The river’s clear chalk stream and the surrounding countryside make the area popular with anglers and walkers, and the landscape reflects the wider agricultural character of the Test Valley.
The settlement has historic roots and a traditional village character, with older stone and thatched cottages and a parish community that still leans on farming while increasingly serving commuters to nearby market towns.
