Swanmore is a village and civil parish in the City of Winchester district of Hampshire, England. It sits on rolling chalk uplands not far inland from the Solent, enjoying the patchwork of farmland and mixed woodland that characterises the area between Winchester and Southampton.
Historically a farming community that expanded in the 19th century around its parish church, the village now combines local amenities - a primary school, pubs, shops, a village hall and sports clubs - with a largely residential and commuter population. Swanmore retains a strong community spirit, regular local events and easy access to country walks, which make it popular with families and those seeking rural life within reach of nearby towns.
