Andwell is a village in northern Hampshire. The old extent of the village and parish has been cruelly curtailed by the unforgiving gash in the landscape that is the M3 motorway. The village is also bounded to the north by the A30 road.
Winchester College has owned land in the village since the 1390s.[1]
By the village stand the ruins of Andwell Priory, a 12th-century Benedictine priory.
