Sherfield Park, also known as Taylors Farm, is a civil parish in the Basingstoke and Deane district of Hampshire, England. It is situated about 4 miles (6 km) northeast of central Basingstoke, to the west of the A33 road that runs between Basingstoke and Reading.

The civil parish covers a housing estate that was built between 2004 and 2014 and now has 1,000 dwellings.[1] The greenfield site had until then mainly been part of Taylors Farm, a name which has sometimes been used for the estate.[2] The estate was originally part of the parish of Sherfield on Loddon. Between 2008 and 2016, the area was a ward of this parish which was named Taylors Farm. On 1 April 2016, Sherfield Park was separated to form a parish of its own,[3] with its first parish council being elected a month later. Sherfield Park is in the borough electoral ward of Chineham and the county council division of Loddon.
