Kingsclere is a historic village nestled at the foot of Watership Down, in the North Hampshire Downs. The village has a charming core of period properties alongside more modern development. The drainage infrastructure in the older parts of the village dates back many decades and often consists of clay pipes with lime mortar joints.

The rural nature of the area means some properties are served by private drainage systems.
