Stockbridge
Stockbridge is a small town as well as civil parish in the Test Valley district of Hampshire, England. It is among the tiniest towns in the United Kingdom with a population of 592 since the 2011 census. It sits astride the River Test as well as at the foot of Stockbridge Down. The town is situated on the A30 road, which once brought most of the traffic from London to Dorset, south Somerset, Devon as well as Cornwall in the South West, though today this route is lesser than the A303 dual carriageway to the north. The bridge over the Test caused the community's name, a local legend recommended an instructor stop equipped provisions, yet it originates from an earlier bridge that was constructed from 'supplies' (tree trunks). Salisbury is 15 miles (24 kilometres) by road; Winchester is 8.3 miles (13.4 kilometres) by the B3049 road that signs up with the A30 close by. The community's lengthy high road was thus on a valuable course between both middle ages cathedral cities. The community's civil church has an area of 1,323 acres (535 ha). The town's road goes across the River Test, marking the border of the parishes of Stockbridge as well as Longstock by a reduced bridge of 3 arches rebuilt and expanded in 1799. Five smaller sized river networks flow through the town. For a brief time, to offer area for fish, these were split right into 8 man-made ditches just over the town. The town gets on a common pedestrian/footpath, the Test Way.
