About

Headley ward covers a rural expanse of East Hampshire, dominated by farmland, woodland, and scattered settlements like Headley and Arford. The landscape is characterised by rolling hills and valleys, with the parish church of St Peter standing at the heart of the old village centre. A network of quiet lanes and public footpaths connects the area, including routes that cross the heathland of Woolmer Forest.

The local economy has strong ties to agriculture and forestry, with several working farms operating within the ward's boundaries. Community life is centred on the village hall, the primary school, and the few local shops and pubs. The ward contains a significant portion of the Woolmer Forest Special Area of Conservation, noted for its population of rare dragonflies and damp heath habitat.
