Butlocks Heath is a village in Hampshire, some three and a half miles southeast of the City of Southampton. It is in the Parish of Hound, which also includes the villages of Netley and Old Netley.
The village is just outside the village of Netley but as Netley has grown, Butlocks Heath has become almost a part of it, though separated still by a small wood called The Bunney, which stops the two villages from quite running into each other. Netley and Butlocks Heath are both only just outside, less than a mile, of the city limits of Southampton.
Woolston Road forms the backbone of the village with roads spurring off it. The road has the village's two pubs, The Cottage Inn Pub and The Roll Call. Also along the main spur road of Woolston Road is a residential care home which currently caters for vulnerable adults. The roads other roads are dead-end residential spurs form Woolston Road.
