Quarley is a village in north-western Hampshire, seven miles west of Andover. The 2001 census recorded a population of 161, reducing to 150 at the 2011 Census.

The village has a small church, St Michael and All Angels, in an ancient, flint-built style with no bell-turret nor bellcote. It is of the 11th century, possibly of late Anglo-Saxon origin and showing features of the Saxon-Norman overlap.[1]

An Iron Age hillfort, Quarley Hill, lies immediately to the south-west.
