Hampshire’s sub-regional jigsaw puzzle
SEERA has tasked the County Council with advising how the new homes should be divided up on a more local level. Working with the other councils in Hampshire, we have proposed a number of options that apply to the specific sub-regions that are defined by the South East Plan. Hampshire is divided into three areas which are described below and available to view on a map in the draft South East Plan.
Central Hampshire and New Forest
This area comprises: most of East Hampshire District, parts of Test Valley Borough, Winchester City and the northern part of the Winchester District, the western part of Basingstoke and Deane Borough, the southern part of Hart District and the whole of New Forest District except Totton and the Waterside.
North Hampshire
North Hampshire comprises: the towns of Basingstoke, Fleet, Farnborough and Aldershot, together with the smaller towns of Hartley Wintney, Hook and Yateley and the surrounding rural areas. It includes the whole of Rushmoor Borough, most of Basingstoke and Deane Borough and all but the southern part of Hart District.
South Hampshire
This area comprises: Eastleigh Borough, Fareham Borough, Gosport Borough, Havant Borough, Southampton City and Portsmouth City, together with the southern parts of East Hampshire, Test Valley and Winchester Districts, and the Totton and Waterside areas of New Forest District.
