Linkenholt is a tiny, largely estate-owned village and civil parish in Test Valley, Hampshire, England, set on the rolling chalk downland of the North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The settlement feels quietly historic, with flint and thatch cottages clustered around a small medieval church and lanes that give onto farmland and managed woodland rather than shops or services.
Historically rooted and dominated by estate agriculture and land management, Linkenholt retains a rural, close-knit character; its economy revolves around farming, estate activity and country pursuits, while residents tend to rely on nearby towns such as Andover for amenities. Its appeal is largely scenic and historic, attracting walkers and those seeking a tranquillity typical of small Hampshire parishes.
