Map of the UK

Kings Worthy is a village and civil parish on the northern edge of Winchester in Hampshire, sitting close to the chalk downland and water meadows of the River Itchen. Its setting gives easy access to countryside walks and national footpaths, while being a short commute into the cathedral city and regional road links, so the parish feels both semi-rural and well connected.

The settlement has medieval roots - the "Worthy" element of the name comes from Old English - and today mixes historic cottages and listed buildings with post-war and modern housing. Community life is lively for a village of its size, centred on a primary school, village hall and sports pitches, with active local clubs and parish council initiatives; economically many residents commute to nearby towns, while local shops and small businesses serve day-to-day needs.
