The Hamptons also known collectively Hampton Dene, Hampton Grange and Hampton Park are a cluster of suburbs of the city of Hereford in the ceremonial county of Herefordshire, England. The suburbs are bordered by the suburbs of Bartonsham, Eign Hill, and Tupsley.
Hampton Dene
Hampton Dene is described as historically consisting of no more than a 19th century villa with a small park. Hampton Dene Primary School is the main primary school in the area.
Hampton Grange
Hampton Grange is the location of the former Hampton Grange Hospital which was built in 1918 and served as a military hospital under the name "Hampton Grange Auxiliary Hospital, Hereford" during the First World War. The hospital has since been converted into a care home which maintains the name Hampton Grange.
Hampton Park
Hampton Park is the name given to both a public park and an area near Tupsley on Old Eign Hill. The area was also the location of the former brickwork called "Hampton Park Brickworks". This was in operation around 1914 but it is believed the works closed in 1940–1960.
Transport
There are regular buses to Hereford and other destinations.
