Stockbridge is a compact civil parish in the borough of Test Valley, Hampshire, England, sitting on the famous chalk stream of the River Test. The river and surrounding chalk downland give the area a strong natural identity: the Test is prized for wild trout and fly-fishing, and the landscape attracts walkers and wildlife enthusiasts drawn to clear water, otters and rich birdlife.
Built around a historic market‑town core, Stockbridge has a characterful high street of stone and brick buildings, independent shops and antiques dealers, and a local economy shaped by tourism, agriculture and small businesses. Its long history and riverside setting make it a popular spot for day visitors and a quiet gateway to Hampshire’s countryside rather than a bustling urban centre.
