Welcome to Leckford

Leckford is a small village located in the county of Hampshire, England. It is situated on the River Test, which is known for its clear waters and abundance of trout. The village is surrounded by beautiful countryside, with rolling hills and fields of crops. Leckford is also home to a number of historic buildings, including a 12th-century church and a manor house that dates back to the 16th century.

One of the main attractions of Leckford is its connection to the John Lewis Partnership. The company's founder, John Spedan Lewis, purchased the Leckford Estate in 1929 and turned it into a model farm. Today, the estate is still owned by the John Lewis Partnership and is home to a number of businesses, including a farm shop, a vineyard, and a garden centre. Visitors can take a tour of the estate and learn about its history and the work that goes on there.

Leckford is also a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts. The River Test is a prime location for fishing, and there are several fishing clubs in the area. The village is also surrounded by walking and cycling trails, which offer stunning views of the countryside. For those who prefer a more leisurely pace, there are several pubs and restaurants in the village where visitors can enjoy a meal or a drink.
