Upton is a hamlet in the civil parish of Nursling and Rownhams, in the Test Valley district, in Hampshire, England, located approximately 1 mile north of Nursling.

It lies beside the main Romsey Road (A3057) leading north from Shirley as it rises over Horns Hill. In the 19th century, the hamlet consisted of one or two cottages and a smithy, as well as country house known as Upton House.
