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 -

Story of Henry the Forgetful!
TOKE GS CA IN N S A A L B and Odiham Castle The Story of ry The Forget Hen ful Story Trail www.hants.gov.uk/storytrails Basingstoke Canal and Odiham Castle Basingstoke Canal runs for 32 miles through scenic countryside between Greywell Village in Hampshire and Woodham in Surrey. Originally a transport system for agricultural produce, it had become derelict by the mid-1960’s, fuelling a campaign for its restoration. This resulted in its current renewed linkage into the 2,000 miles of British inland waterways. Designated as a Site of Special and Scientific Interest, it is an outstanding habitat for aquatic plant and animal life, with natural springs in the canal bed helping to keep it in water. Carefully restored canal bridges, the lakes and flashes near Mytchett and the flights of locks in Surrey are just some of the many features of the canal. Greywell Tunnel is especially interesting as it is home to many species of bats. After its collapse in 1932 it now blocks navigation to the original end point at Basingstoke. Another important feature of the canal is Odiham Castle, one of three strongholds built by King John, and the place from which he rode out to Magna Carta in 1215. Construction took place between 1207 and 1214 and involved setting out square moats and raising banks. In 1216, shortly after it was finished, it suffered a two-week siege at the hands of the French. During the 13th century it became home to the de Montfort family, and would have been one of the most powerful households in the land at the time. -
