Stroud Hampshire Map

About Stroud

Stroud lies within the East Hampshire district, a quiet corner of the South Downs National Park. It lies 2.7 km west of Petersfield (from Petersfield: bearing 278°T, OS grid SU 719 235), and is situated east of Langrish village. The gentle slopes of the surrounding countryside, often softened by a fine, pearly light, cradle Stroud, and the fields here can seem to hold the echo of ancient ploughs. Hints of its agricultural past are still evident in the hedgerows and the scattered patterns of farmsteads. Though small, Stroud possesses a certain stillness, a quality that seems to absorb the passing hours with a patient grace, and the air here can carry the faint scent of damp earth and distant woodsmoke. The quiet roads that thread through Stroud invite a slower pace, a thoughtful wandering that might lead one to notice the weathered stone of older cottages.
