Bransbury is a hamlet in Hampshire, England, part of the parish of Barton Stacey.[1][2] The nearest village is Barton Stacey (where the 2011 census was included), halfway between Winchester and Andover; there is a junction for Bransbury on the A303 towards Exeter. Bransbury has twenty-two dwellings: a collection of agricultural workers’ cottages with gardens of generous proportions, Bransbury Manor, which dates from the 18th century, and Bransbury Mill, a Grade II listed building.[3] The Crook and Shears Inn public house was converted into a dwelling in the late 20th century. The hamlet straddles the River Dever.

The road from Barton Stacey to Bransbury is prone to pooling water, because of its position on the flood plain.[4]
