Follow Steve Davison to Preston Candover for a wander in the rolling countryside between Basingstoke and Alresford

Making Tracks

OUR walk this month starts at the village of Preston Candover, tucked amongst the gently rolling landscape that lies between Basingstoke, Alton and Alresford. The name is derived from ‘Prestecandevere’ meaning ‘Candover of the priests’; the Candover part probably stems from ‘caniodubri’ which means ‘clear waters’, referring to the stream that rises from several springs just to the south of the village.
