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

The nearest town, with the nearest convenient shops, is Tadley, through which cuts the Berkshire border, five miles to the north. Basingstoke is seven miles to the south.

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.

Events in Ramsdell include weekly cricket matches in the summer months, a bi-annual Fete[1] and an annual village tennis tournament. There is also a monthly ladies' club meeting in the village hall. The local pub is called the White Hart.
