Chilton Candover is a village in Hampshire, in the valley of the River Alre and on the main road from Basingstoke to Winchester. It consists of a few scattered houses built of brick and roofed with slate, thatch and tiles. To the north lies an underground churchyard enclosed by a flint stone wall, now abandoned and overgrown with weeds.

The village belongs to the parish of the Candovers. Its nearest town is New Alresford, five and a half miles away from the village. Its nearest railway station is the restored Watercress Line, at New Alresford.
