This is a public event, open to all, at To which attendees are invited to help create a Farnborough concept for a sustainable new neighbourhood south of Badshot Lea, and its relationship with C O M M U N I T Y the surrounding communities. PLANNING WEEKEND Rowen Properties (London) Ltd on behalf of a consortium of landowners is proposing to create a new residential-led, neighbourhood near Badshot Lea. The Borough Council needs to provide at least 9,861 dwellings over the next 16 years and the proposal will help to deliver housing towards Introduction meeting the requirement and provide a wide range of high quality and much needed new homes. Former quarry D land to the south of the A31 is also proposed for an area of natural recreational green space known as a SANG (Suitable Alternative Natural Greenspace).

Located close to Squire’s Garden Centre and running A south, and including a parcel south of the A31, the site C could accommodate new sustainable housing, inclusive of To self-build and affordable homes, as well as a hotel, care and London B home, shop and pub, in a high quality landscaped setting. The development can also contribute to improving the local movement infrastructure, including improved cycle links to key destinations, and investment in education and community facilities.

Rowen Properties has appointed JTP as masterplanners, to work with the local community to develop a concept for the new neighbourhood. The Community Planning Weekend is an opportunity to share local knowledge and contribute to planning the new neighbourhood through workshops and hands-on planning groups.

The proposed site is 13.9 ha/34.4 acres, with additional land south of A31 which Rowen Properties is promoting

(in agreement with the landowner, SUEZ) at 9.9 ha/24.5 Proposed site boundary acres. The emerging concept could accommodate up to To Land to be promoted by client in 630 homes across both sites.

It forms part of a complex of heathlands in Southern England that support important populations of breeding birds, including C O M M U N I T Y the Dartford Warbler, Nightjar and Woodlark. The site PLANNING WEEKEND lies within the Thames Basin Heath SPA buffer zone which covers most of the built-up area of Farnham. As such, in accordance with the 2009 adopted Thames Basin Heath Avoidance Strategy the development must seek to avoid a net increase in population from new housing developments within the buffer zone. In this instance, ‘avoidance measures’ Landscape / SANG means providing or contributing towards Suitable Alternative Natural Greenspace (SANG) (to increase the area/or Context ecological value of ‘buffer’ land), and contributing towards a programme of strategic access management and monitoring

(SAMM) of the SPA. To Guildford and London Waverley Borough’s only current SANG resource is at Farnham Park. Growing pressure from other developments means this has limited available capacity. Provision has therefore been made within the site for a SANG, meaning the development is not reliant on available capacity at Farnham Park.

The Badshot Lea development proposes approximately 12.9 ha of SANG to be available for use by people moving into the new housing, as well as the existing local community. The land will be managed as a semi-natural area with plenty of space for a range of informal recreational activities and will be actively managed for the enjoyment of, and use by local people and families.
