  • Fleet to Greywell
    Fleet to Greywell Customer information event Project overview • 10 million investment into futureproofing the drinking water network • Planning to install 12 kilometres of water main between Fleet and Odiham • At present, the project is set to begin in June 2021 and be complete by April 2023 • New pipe will allow us to draw in water from other areas of the county to counter a predicted rise in demand in Odiham, Greywell and towns to the west – including Basingstoke. • Pipe will be laid predominantly along the highway, although some sections will involve digging in rural areas. A series of road closures will be required • Working closely with all of our stakeholders, customers and landowners to minimise disruption to businesses and the local community 2 The route • Following extensive consultation with our stakeholders, the selected route is deemed the one which will cause the least amount of disruption to the public and environment • The route will involve passing under a section of North Hants Golf Club. We investigated other options, but nearby roads are extremely congested with existing utilities and the ground conditions are not suitable. • Other routes would require road closures and would consequently have caused mass disruption to customers and commuters due to a long diversion route via Minley Road. 3 4 5 6 Work carried out so far • Undertaken ground investigations for entire route (trial holes and boreholes). • Undertaken environmental surveys for entire route (some ongoing) • Installed 1.8 kilometres of main between Greywell

  • SOME MEMORIES of HOOK 100 YEARS AGO1 [Written in About 1930, Annotated by Nigel Bell 1998, Transcribed by Martin Whittaker 1998]
    SOME MEMORIES OF HOOK 100 YEARS AGO1 [Written in about 1930, annotated by Nigel Bell 1998, transcribed by Martin Whittaker 1998] Perhaps I may be allowed to generalise before I start along the road I wish to travel. 'Hook': time and, time again has the question cropped up as to the origin of the name. It is a bit obscure but comes, I understand, from the Saxon Hoc meaning a piece of metal bent into a curve for catching, holding and sustaining anything: a snare, a trap, or from the Welsh Hoc meaning a scythe, a curved instrument for cutting grain – a sickle, and in this connection it is generally supposed by authorities that the name originated from the curved highway2. In passing I might say that there are about fourteen 'Hooks' and each one has, or had, a curved road passing through it. Hook itself owes its importance to being situated on this great highway extending from London to the West. During the centuries of the past British, Roman, Saxon, Dane3, Norman and the various European Traders to the great Fairs and Markets have passed on conveyances of their day with their goods and chattels. Kings, Queens, Statesmen, Soldiers and Sailors, all kinds of men, both high and low have passed through our humble hamlet. About a mile from this road, as you all know, are the remains of a castle just across Bartley Heath - generally spoken of as Hook Common. We hardly claim this as part of Hook proper, although it is only in the next parish, and about as close to this Band Hall as it is to Odiham church.
