West Tisted
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
West Tisted is a small village in central Hampshire, England. It is located just off the A32.
The village is home to a Saxon church, and an ancient oak tree. West Tisted was also the home of Sir Benjamin Tichborne, sheriff of Southampton.
In modern times the village is dominated by a large working farm, R S Hill and Sons, for which many of the residents work. The company also owns West Tisted Manor.
The company's surviving proprietor is Ashwin Hill, the remaining son.
