The small rural parish of Corhampton and Meonstoke sits in the Meon Valley within the district of Winchester, Hampshire, in southern England. It straddles the gentle valley carved by the River Meon, with rolling chalk downland of the South Downs nearby; narrow lanes, flint cottages and a village green give it a quietly picturesque countryside character.
Historically the area has deep roots - Corhampton is particularly noted for its small Anglo-Saxon church and both villages show medieval field patterns and traditional architecture. Today the local economy remains largely agricultural with some small businesses and commuters to nearby towns; community life revolves around the church, village hall and pub, and the parish draws walkers and heritage visitors who come for the landscape and rural charm.
