The borough took its name from Rushmoor Arena, a military showground constructed at Rushmoor Bottom in 1923. It is located at the very northeast corner of Hampshire and is bounded by West Sussex on the north, east and south, and by the Hart District on the west. Aldershot and Farnborough both have military connections.
