It is 3 miles (5 km) north-west of Petersfield, and lies just north of the A272 road.

Earthworks which run north–south and pass along the western edge of the modern village may be an Anglo-Saxon defensive work, or mark a tribal boundary.

[2] The remains of a Roman and Romano-British site lie a short distance south-east of the village.

[3] Froxfield is not mentioned in the 1086 Domesday Book; the area is probably included land at Menes which later became the large East Meon estate.

In simple Early English style, it is built in flint rubble with stone dressings,[12] and has a western bell-turret which houses a bell dated 1766.
