Northington is a very small rural parish in the district of Winchester, in Hampshire, England. Set in rolling chalk downland and pasture, it comprises a scattering of dwellings, farmland and parkland a short drive from nearby market towns; the landscape is typical of north Hampshire with hedgerows, small woods and public footpaths that make it popular with walkers seeking a quiet countryside setting.
The parish contains a notable historic country estate centred on Northington Grange, whose house and gardens are an important part of the area’s heritage; beyond that the local economy is largely agricultural with some residents commuting into Winchester and other towns. Social life is low-key and community-focused, with a tiny population, small-scale events and an emphasis on conserving the parish’s rural character.
