Fire Safety Services in Stone
Stone is a small village and civil parish located just east of Winchester in Hampshire, with a population of around 1,200. Set along the River Itchen, it features a charming mix of traditional cottages, riverside homes, and newer developments, all set within scenic countryside. Its proximity to both Winchester—approximately two miles west—and the M3 motorway makes it a quiet yet well-connected community.
Transport options are convenient for residents and local businesses. Stone sits close to the A33, providing quick access to Winchester, Basingstoke, and the M3. Although the village lacks its own railway station, nearby stations at Winchester and Shawford offer services to London Waterloo, Southampton, and regional destinations. Regular bus routes also link Stone with Winchester city centre and nearby rural communities.
Stone’s economy is primarily residential in character, but it’s supported by local trades, professional services, and community enterprises. Several riverside inns and cafés draw visitors, especially during the summer months, and there are a handful of workshops and home-based businesses in the village. Many residents commute to Winchester or travel further afield for work, while some locally rooted professionals and tradespeople serve the wider area.
The local community benefits from well-regarded schools, a village hall hub, allotments, and access to riverside footpaths and green spaces. Nearby villages such as Otterbourne, Compton, and Shawford share services and amenities, contributing to a strong local network in the Winchester fringe.
ESI supports businesses in Stone, as well as nearby Otterbourne, Compton, and Shawford, with commercial-grade electrical and fire-safety services. Whether you run a café, offices, workshops, or hospitality venues, our certified engineers provide compliant testing, emergency-lighting checks, fire‑alarm servicing, and full compliance audits—so you can focus on running your business with peace of mind.
