Stockbridge and Horsebridge are in the Test Valley in West Central Hampshire.
The 44 mile long Test Way long distance footpath, here passes through Stockbridge, often said to be England's smallest town and the village of Horsebridge along an old railway line ('Sprat and Winkle Line') for nearly three miles. With car parks at either end you have a choice of start points. The walk includes Stockbridge Common Marsh, managed by The National Trust (Be Aware - Livestock may be present), the area has woodland, dense scrubland and meadows, often EXTREMELY WET during/following periods of heavy rain. Marsh Court Lake holds numerous wildfowl, especially during Winter, unfortunately views of the lake are obstructed by reedbeds, scrubland and trees. A good test of wildfowl in flight awaits birdwatchers. Further South nearer Horsebridge are PRIVATE fishing lakes amongst woodland, whilst there are numerous paths on Stockbridge Common Marsh you can use, further South it is IMPORTANT you do not deviate from the pathway, conflict has occurred in the past with trespassing.
The River Test is one of England's finest chalk rivers, many birds can be found along it's length, here Mergulhão-pequeno, Zarro-comum, Frisada, Zarro-negrinha, Rouxinol-bravo, Felosa-dos-juncos, rouxinol-dos-caniços, Escrevedeira-dos-caniços, Maçarico-das-rochas, Pássaro-bique-bique, Ógea, Águia-d'asa-redonda, Águia-pesqueira, Frango-d'água and Narceja-comum are all possible depending on season.
