  • Daryl Phillips Joint Chief Executive Hart District Council Civic Offices, Harlington Way, Fleet, Hampshire GU51 4AE
    Daryl Phillips Joint Chief Executive Hart District Council Civic Offices, Harlington Way, Fleet, Hampshire GU51 4AE 4th November 2014 Dear Daryl, I write in response to the Paper J Cabinet Report for presentation to Members on the 6 th November. Hartley Wintney Parish Council is concerned at the content of the report pertaining to the recommendation (subject to testing) of Winchfield as a preferred option for a new settlement. The Parish Council chose not to respond to the consultation as it was felt that this was a high level strategic paper and in undertaking our Neighbourhood Plan we felt we would best able to inform the Local Plan process with regard to site allocations once housing numbers had been determined and preferred site options were being considered. We were therefore shocked to see that a site specific allocation has already been put forward by the Council (in paragraph 5.9) despite no reference at all to Winchfield in the Housing Development Options Consultation Paper itself. Indeed, it was made clear at the briefing session on the consultation that the map showing option 4, which appeared to illustrate Winchfield as the location for such a placement of a new settlement was just “illustrative” and the consultation paper was not a site allocation document. We would like to know where is the evidence base which has led to the conclusion reached in para 5.9 that Winchfield is “the only area where that scale of growth could realistically be delivered.” If it has been tested against other sites already, such as North Warnborough, then the Housing Development Options Consultation was flawed and should have stated Option 4 – Focused Growth (New Settlement at Winchfield).

  • A History of Hartley Wintney and Its Commons
    A History of Hartley Wintney and its Commons (Hampshire County Council) Mary Ann Bennett 2014 A History of Hartley Wintney and its Commons The village of Hartley Witney today is largely an 18th to early 19th century development straddling the main A30 road, quite a distance from its historic centre. The old village of Hartley Wintney was situated near the Priory, Church and three- field system of agriculture it supported on a ridge between today’s village and the M3 motorway. Historically the Manor of Hartley Wintney consisted of a number of small settlements surrounded by large areas of common and heathland. These settlements were close to St. Mary’s Church, at Hartford Bridge, near The Lamb on the corner of Hunts Common, Dipley Green, Hazeley Heath and at Phoenix Green. There was a later development at West Green. Over the centuries the land between these areas of habitation has diminished by encroachment and small enclosures, which over centuries has reduced the scale of the commons. Today the remaining commons are known as Causeway, Cricketers, St. John’s, Phoenix, Hunts and West Green as well as part of Hazeley Heath, but originally all but the outlying commons were an extensive band of poor or marginal land known as the waste of the Manor. This mixed woodland, rough pasture and heathland extended from Bears Green, near Murrell, through Phoenix Green, all the way to the River Hart at Hartford Bridge and beyond this to Hartford Flats. The early village settled around its Cistercian Priory. Geoffrey FitzPeter who th is named as the ‘fundator ecclesiae nostra’ (1) (our founder) of this 12 century nunnery was Lord of the Manor of Hartley Wintney.
