Welcome to Anthill Common

Anthill Common is a beautiful and serene location situated in the heart of Hampshire. The common is a vast expanse of land that is home to a diverse range of flora and fauna. The area is a popular destination for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts who come to explore the many walking trails and enjoy the stunning scenery. The common is also a great place for bird watching, with a variety of species to be spotted throughout the year.

One of the most striking features of Anthill Common is the ancient woodland that covers much of the area. The woodland is home to a variety of trees, including oak, beech, and birch, and is a haven for wildlife. Visitors can explore the woodland on foot, taking in the sights and sounds of the forest. The woodland is particularly beautiful in the autumn months when the leaves turn golden and red, creating a stunning display of colour.

Anthill Common is also home to a number of historic sites, including the remains of a Roman villa and a medieval moated site. These sites offer a fascinating glimpse into the area's rich history and provide a unique insight into the lives of those who lived here centuries ago. Visitors can explore these sites and learn more about the history of the area, making Anthill Common a great destination for history buffs as well as nature lovers.
