Micheldever

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Micheldever is a village in Hampshire, England, situated north of Winchester off the A33 road.

The village is served by Micheldever station – located some distance away at grid reference SU518428 – on the main railway line between London and Southampton. Micheldever Station is the only one between Basingstoke and Winchester; its remote existence explained by its original name of Andover Road; the town of Andover not receiving its own station until much later. Interestingly, the 'village' of Micheldever Station has become a desirable commuter area in recent years, because of the direct London connection of this otherwise remote location.
