About

Oakley & The Candovers ward encompasses a rural expanse to the east of Basingstoke, characterised by farmland, woodland, and scattered villages. The area includes the large village of Oakley, along with the neighbouring settlements of North Waltham, Dummer, and the Candover parishes. This is primarily a residential and agricultural landscape, with a network of narrow lanes connecting the communities. The presence of the M3 motorway forms a significant boundary along the ward's western edge.

The geography is defined by the valleys of the River Loddon and its tributaries, which shape the gentle, rolling countryside. A notable local landmark is the historic Deane Gate Inn, a 17th-century coaching inn situated on the old London to Winchester road. Community life is centred around village halls, churches, and local schools, with a strong emphasis on preserving the quiet, village character distinct from the urban centre of Basingstoke.
