Longstock is a small village and civil parish in the Test Valley district of Hampshire, England, sitting beside the famous chalk-stream River Test near the market town of Stockbridge. The village is noted for its riverside meadows, historic church and the nearby Longstock Park Gardens, part of the wider Leckford Estate, which is owned and managed by the John Lewis Partnership and draws visitors for its gardens and tranquil countryside setting.
Locally the economy and social life revolve around agriculture, horticulture, fly-fishing on the River Test and low-key tourism, with a close-knit rural community and several listed buildings and conservation areas. Despite its quiet character, Longstock is within easy reach of nearby market towns and cities such as Winchester and Salisbury, so it combines village tranquillity with access to wider services and commuting links.
