  • Annex 3 6. Gosport 6.1 About Gosport Gosport Borough Is the Smallest
    72 CHIEF EXECUTIVE Annex 3 6. Gosport 6.1 About Gosport Gosport Borough is the smallest district in Hampshire and unique in being a peninsula. Gosport has a long and continuing association with the Armed Forces and its strategic position at the mouth of Portsmouth Harbour means that it has for centuries been associated with marine activity, particularly Portsmouth’s Naval Base. HMS Dolphin at Fort Blockhouse was an active submarine base between 1904 and 1998. The activity associated with the Navy has declined over a long period and many naval installations, such as Fort Brockhurst, have been opened to the public as tourism and heritage sites. The harbour area has been redeveloped as a marina. Gosport has long suffered from inward access problems dictated by its peninsular geography. Following the loss of many naval jobs, there is now significant car-based commuting out of Gosport, causing congestion particularly along the A32 and Newgate Lane. A branch railway for passengers ran from Fareham to central Gosport until 1953 but this line was downgraded to a freight line and then closed in 1969. Part of the route is now being developed as an express bus corridor. Gosport is now the largest town in Britain without an operational railway station but the town benefits from a frequent ferry link to Portsmouth city, Portsmouth Harbour station and the Gunwharf Quays retail centre. It is expected that the redevelopment of HMS Daedalus, whose southern part is in Gosport, as an Enterprise Zone will being much-needed local employment. There are no parishes in Gosport but each division has community associations that readily identify with their areas and promote activity.

  • Holy Trinity, Newtown & St Peter's, Soberton
    The United Benefice of Holy Trinity, Newtown & St Peter’s, Soberton Holy Trinity, Newtown We worship together in our local community, seeking to bring people of all ages to Christ through our work and witness. Strengthened by our faith, using our care, skills and time, we proclaim the good news of God’s love. St Peter’s, Soberton The Parish Tapestry was completed in 1999 for the Millennium and now hangs for 2 years alternately, in both churches. Designed by Sylvia May, with appliqué and embroidery worked by thirty-one ladies in the villages. 1 Our Parishes The two parishes which comprise the United Benefice of Soberton & Newtown lie 10 miles north of Portsmouth in the Meon Valley. The Benefice is in the South Downs National Park and is an area of great natural beauty. Bordered to the west by the River Meon and the A32 road from Fareham to Alton, the village of Soberton lies to the north and Newtown to the south. The parishes themselves comprise small clusters of houses with fields or woodland in between and are connected principally by narrow country lanes. The villages are surrounded by several small hamlets which are included in the benefice. Properties date from the fifteenth century to the present day and include many listed buildings. The total population of the parishes is about 1,640 divided St Peter’s between Soberton, Soberton Heath and Newtown. Historically they were dominated by agriculture, but with substantial connections with the Royal Navy arising from the proximity of the Vicarage Portsmouth naval base. These connections continue in the parishes but increasingly those in business, medical and other professions are making their homes here and working in the Solent area or commuting to London, or working from home several days a week.

  • 100820 R North of Fareham Strategic Development
    _______________________________________________________________________ North Fareham Strategic Development Area Emerging Transport Strategy August 2010 ________________________________________________________________________ Exec Summary The Emerging Transport Strategy for North Fareham Strategic Development Area (SDA) recognises the existing transport issues and challenges in this area, taking into account the need to accommodate the Bus Rapid Transit strategy whilst also considering the transport demands of the new development. The strategy is based upon the current understanding of a reduced planning allocation for the SDA of 7,000 to 8,000 dwellings and approximately 97,000 sq metres of employment space and assumes that the development of the employment space near to M27 junction 11 will not take place before 2021. The strategy builds upon the recommendations of the TfSH Joint Committee on 21 June 2010 having regard for both the M27 Corridor Study findings and the Wider BRT Study. The findings have been developed and enhanced to take into account the findings of other ongoing studies relating to reduce and manage and the developing Town Access Plan for Fareham. The strategy aims to: support exemplar sustainable growth and development with sustainable movement promoted through the Bus Rapid Transit Strategy, reduce journey trip lengths and the need to travel outside the new development and to manage transport moving within the surrounding area. Building upon the above the emerging transport strategy is based around the following key assumptions: That the SDA will have high levels of self containment; That the SDA will have a high proportion of trips which are addressed through reduce and manage policies, including emphasis upon smarter choices, walking and cycling; That Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) will form a key component of the access strategy; That access will be initially via the A32 and M27 junction 10; That a link road will be required to connect the A32 to M27 junction 11 once the employment space is developed after 2021.

  • Strategy for Spatial Distribution
    1 CAB1772(LDF) - Appendix F Winchester District Development Framework Core Strategy – Issues and Options December 2008 Strategic and Local Gaps Analysis of Consultation Responses 2 CAB1772(LDF) - Appendix F Strategy for Gaps Summary of Issues and Proposed Options Within the Winchester District, the issues of formally identifying and subsequently maintaining important open areas between existing built-up areas have been important elements in development plan policy-making for many years. Such ‘gaps’ are, if kept in their present relatively undeveloped condition, capable of helping to maintain the visual identity and separate character of certain settlements which are in close proximity to one another. The protection of such gaps is particularly important where the intervening space is at particular risk of erosion through development, leading to the gradual coalescence of those built- up areas and a loss of their individuality and distinctiveness. Within the comparatively urbanised parts of southern Hampshire there are particularly significant areas of open or undeveloped land which are of fundamental importance in terms of shaping the overall settlement pattern. Added to this, they perform a long-term role in providing extensive breaks between these large and complex built-up areas and may also bring other benefits for nearby communities as areas with recreation, amenity and/or nature conservation value. Therefore, over time, particularly significant gaps of wider strategic importance have been designated as ‘Strategic Gaps’ by Hampshire County Council and put in place through its Structure Plans. In addition, a number of important ‘Local Gaps’ have been identified by the City Council and adopted through previous and current Local Plans.

Old Winchester Hill is on the western end of the South Downs, overlooking the Meon valley. Because it has been grazed for centuries, first by cattle and now by sheep, it is a very good butterfly site. Also it has benefited from the protection afforded in 1951 when it was designated an SSSI and a National Nature Reserve. There is a lot to see because the site is about one mile wide from east to west and one mile long from north to south, with good footpaths.
