About Shirrell Heath

Shirrell Heath rests in Hampshire's Winchester district, a quiet settlement where the land gently slopes towards the north. It lies 2.4 km north of Wickham (from Wickham: bearing 355°T, OS grid SU 570 139), and is situated north-east of Shedfield village. The air here often carries the faint scent of damp earth and distant chalk, a testament to the underlying geology of the South Downs National Park, which lies within easy reach. Fields, often a patchwork of greens and golds depending on the season, stretch out under a sky that can shift from a pale, diffused light to a vibrant, almost crystalline blue. The houses of Shirrell Heath, many built of mellowed brick or flint, seem to absorb the diffused sunlight, lending a soft, warm hue to the lanes. The quietude of Shirrell Heath is a prevailing characteristic, broken only by the murmur of the wind through the trees or the distant bleating of sheep on the surrounding pastures.
