About

Abbotswood and West Wellow sit within the Test Valley borough of Hampshire, forming a mix of recent residential development and an established village community. Abbotswood grew as a planned neighbourhood on the western edge of Romsey and is laid out with connecting footpaths, a small local centre and links to surrounding farmland. Streets are served by local bus routes into Romsey and there are allotment plots and a community green that act as everyday meeting points for residents.

West Wellow lies immediately to the north and retains a village core set around a recreation ground and primary school. The recreation ground hosts a cricket square and community events through the summer; a village hall offers regular activities and local clubs. Narrow country lanes lead from the village into fields and woodlands used for walking and riding, and a parish church anchors the village centre. Day-to-day shops and services are focused on the village lane, giving the area a compact local pattern rather than a dispersed town centre.
