Eastview Gardens consists of a limited number of established and varying sized semi-detached houses fronting Crows Lane, which borders open countryside, and lies within the favoured village of Upper Farringdon located about half a mile East of the A32, the Alton to Meon Valley road, within a tract of open countryside on the fringes of the South Downs National Park. The village has two inns, a church, a recreational area and a network of footpaths and bridleways stretching across the surrounding countryside. On an historical note, the area is known for its connections with Jane Austen at Chawton, the naturalist Gilbert White at Selborne and the former site of the Meon Valley railway line. Chawton village has a primary school whilst senior schools, the Convent RC school, Alton College of Further Education and several nursery schools can be found in Alton.
