Downton was a railway station serving Downton, a village in Wiltshire. The village contained a large tanning mill on the River Avon, which has now closed, and has been redeveloped as residential property. The station was one of many casualties of the mass closure of British railway lines in the 1960s and 1970s; the last service was on 2 May 1964. It was served by the Salisbury and Dorset Junction Railway, a line running north–south, along the River Avon just to the West of the New Forest, connecting Salisbury to the North and Poole to the South, meeting the Southampton and Dorchester Railway at West Moors. Today, the site of the station is a residential estate.

The village is within the boundaries of the New Forest National Park.The settlement was once called Warminster Green, but by 1876 it was known as Lover, possibly a corruption of Lower Redlynch. Lover consists of three roads that connect together to form a triangle. These are Besomer Drove, School Road and Church Hill. The name Besomer Drove refers to the tradition of broom-making in the area.Lover has St Mary's church, built in 1837 to serve the Redlynch area. Nearby is Redlynch Village Hall. A National School was built c. 1839 and rebuilt in 1878; it became Redlynch Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School. After the school closed in 2006 its playing fields were transferred to the parish council. Renamed Lover Green, the area is maintained by the community and is the venue for the annual Lover Country Fayre. In 2016 the school buildings were bought by the community.The Lover post office used to do much business around Valentine's Day, as items posted there were postmarked "Lover". Although the post office was regarded as a "vital" service for the 100 people a week who used it, it was closed on 2 April 2008. Since the closure, a temporary post office opens during the week of Valentine's Day so that the cards can be stamped with "Lover".Lover also once had a village store and pub, but both have been closed.
