Around Alton.
Alton is an east Hampshire market town with a long brewing history, a heritage steam railway to Alresford and a mostly residential population commuting towards Basingstoke, Farnham and London. It serves a ring of villages where many customers live on quiet lanes with limited alternatives nearby. For local businesses that means villages like Four Marks and Chawton are just as important as the town in search terms, and a clearly stated coverage area helps you get the enquiries worth driving out for.
The nearest towns in the same council area are Bordon (5 miles) and Petersfield (10 miles). Elsewhere in Hampshire, New Alresford (9 miles), Basingstoke (10 miles), Fleet (11 miles) and Aldershot (12 miles) are within reach. Across the boundary into the next council area, Farnham (9 miles) is also close. A longer drive takes in Haslemere (12 miles). If you cover some of these and not others, the site should name the ones you do.
Holybourne, Four Marks, Chawton, Medstead and Bentworth: if you work in particular parts of Alton, those names belong on the site.
