Ramsdell is a small village in the north of Hampshire. The neighbouring hamlet, Charter Alley, is just half a mile up the road.

Other nearby villages include West Heath, Stoney Heath, Baughurst, Monk Sherborne, and Wootton St Lawrence.
The parish church, Christ Church, is the focal point of the village, by the cross roads right in the centre where Basingstoke Road meets Ewhurst Lane and Monk Sherborne road. Ramsdell is also beautified by a cricket ground.
Society
The village hall and a community tennis court stand by the cricket ground along with a children's play park. Christ Church is located on one of the corners with the village hall nearby.
