About

Andover Downlands ward encompasses the rural southern edge of Test Valley borough. The landscape is defined by chalk downland ridges and agricultural fields, with scattered farmsteads and small villages like Upper Clatford and Goodworth Clatford. The area is primarily residential, with housing developments situated alongside older, established communities. The River Anton, a tributary of the Test, flows through the northern part of the ward.

The ward includes the historic Anna Valley and the hamlet of Little Ann. Land use is largely agricultural, with some areas of woodland. A notable local feature is the former Andover Airfield site, which has been redeveloped. The terrain is gently rolling, characteristic of the Hampshire Downs, and the area is crossed by several public footpaths and bridleways.
