Step back in time at Weyhill, a charming Hampshire village steeped in history and easily reached for a car-free day out.
Discover Weyhill, a historic Hampshire village just west of Andover, renowned for its incredible past as one of England’s largest medieval fairs. Imagine the bustling scenes of old, where thousands of sheep, hops, and cheeses were traded, a legacy even captured by Thomas Hardy in ‘The Mayor of Casterbridge’.
Today, the spirit of community thrives at the Fairground Craft & Design Centre, built on the ancient fairground site. Here, you can browse independent craft studios, find unique treasures, and enjoy a warm cuppa at The Fairground Café. Arriving by bus from Andover offers a wonderfully relaxed way to soak up the village’s character and perhaps take a gentle stroll through the surrounding Hampshire countryside.
