Lower Ratley Local Business Website Creation
Lower Ratley is one of Test Valley's local areas, within postcode district SO51, bordering Broadgate, Spearywell and Awbridge. Andover's name comes from Celtic roots meaning 'ash tree water', and it was already important enough to have a royal hunting lodge by 950 AD. Its medieval economy was built on the wool and sheep trade, which dominated the town for centuries before declining in the 19th century.
Andover Chamber, part of the Hampshire Chamber of Commerce's network of local area committees, represents businesses across the town and the wider Test Valley. According to official ONS figures, there were 5,800 VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses in the area.
Test Valley's population changed by 5.9% over the five years to 2024 (ONS). That's the size of the audience website creation is working with in this area.
