More about this scene
To this day, Hurstbourne Tarrant remains the quintessential English village. It is also the meeting point for two of Hampshire's smaller, lesser-known waterways - the Bourne rivulet and the River Swift. A long main street, groups of thatched cottages and a picturesque 17th-century coaching inn at the foot of a steep hill create an atmosphere of charm and quiet dignity. The writer William Cobbett regarded it as his favourite village - 'a sight worth going many miles to see,' he claimed.
