Longparish is a small village and civil parish in Test Valley, Hampshire, set along the banks of the chalk-stream River Test. The riparian meadows and clear water make it a classic Wiltshire/Hampshire rural landscape popular with anglers and walkers, and it sits conveniently a few miles from larger towns such as Andover and Stockbridge.
Historically agricultural, the village now combines working farms and equestrian activity with residents who commute to nearby towns; there is a strong community focus, reflected in local clubs, a village hall and regular events. Architecturally it mixes period cottages and farmhouses with more recent homes, and local interest often centres on conserving the river environment and traditional village life.
