Hampshire
Southampton's surrounding region
Hampshire is a county in southern England, known for its coastline along the English Channel and cities including Southampton and Portsmouth.
The name also designates breeds of livestock developed there: Hampshire pigs are black with a white belt, and Hampshire sheep are large with dark faces.
We raise Hampshire hogs on our farm.
