About Andover - show infohide info
In the county of Hampshire, 13 miles North-West of Winchester, Andover today is a town of about 40,000 people. The town has been in continuous habitation since Saxon times and was granted its first charter in 1175 by King Henry II. At the time of the Domesday Book, Andover was quite a large settlement of about 500 residents, yet remained a small market town. Processing wool appears to have been the main industry and street names in the area of the town known as 'Sheep Fair'? commemorate this. A weekly market and an annual fair were held. During the 18th century, being situated on the main Exeter '“ Salisbury '“ London road Andover became a major stopping point on the stagecoach routes, more than 30 stagecoaches passing through the town each day. In 1789 a canal to Southampton was opened, though this was never a commercial success and closed in 1859. Andover has always been however, located on important communication lines. The ancient Harrow Way passed just north of the town, coaches on the Exeter route stopped here and during the railway age there were stations on North-South and East-West lines. Despite the wool industry's fall into decline, industries like the iron works printers would later come to fruition. Today, light industry is still the primary business, and many commute the hour and a half train journey to London to work.
