Appleshaw is a village in the English county of Hampshire. The name Appleshaw is derived from Old English ‘scarga’ - a shaugh or wood; thus Appleshaw may mean ‘apple wood’.

The northern boundary of the parish is the Wiltshire border. This small parish lies on the Wiltshire border and includes the hamlets of Redenham and Ragged Appleshaw, including part of Redenham Park. Granted the right to two annual fairs in 1658, Appleshaw became a rival to the great Weyhill sheep fair.

In the middle of the street a clock sticks out from a barn wall, placed there to celebrate Queen Victoria's jubilee.

Acres, 980. Real property, £545. Pop., 42. Houses, 11. Hippenscombe was added to Tidcombe ecclesiastical parish in 1879 and to Tidcombe and Fosbury civil parish in 1894.
