Downton, Hampshire

Downton is a hamlet in Hampshire, England, clustered around a crossroads on the A337 road (Lymington to New Milton) with a lane to the sea southwards whilst another lane leads north to Hordle.

Part of the Green belt, its population fluctuates as it has two holiday/static home parks with amenities and some small camp sites.
