Work on the Pembers Hill Park development at Fair Oak has continued over the last few months since lockdown and the first residents have now moved in. The first buyers to complete and be welcomed to their hew home at Pembers Hill Park were two key workers, Heather and Jonathan. They have both been on the frontline throughout the pandemic and have now moved into a lovely new home. Jonathan said: “Our home is perfectly placed for both of us, close enough for me to get to Portsmouth and Heather to get to the hospital but far enough away for the quiet, semi-rural village setting we want to start our family in.”
To date, seven houses have been sold and 35 reservations made for this new development including four affordable homes.

team. A further 30 day public consultation period was undertaken to allow everyone to view and submit feedback. The consultation finishes on 15 November. Once all the information and comments are received the Council will be working with stakeholders to target a committee date later this year.
The proposal included the construction of up to 148 residential dwellings with new vehicle access to Hamble Lane, alterations to Kings Avenue and Coronation Parade together with new car parking for, and improvements to, existing sports facilities. In July 2020, the Council received confirmation from The Planning Inspectorate (PINS) that an appeal had been lodged by the applicants. The Planning Inspector will consider whether permission should have been granted for the proposal. The date for the start of the appeal is Tuesday 10 November and the Council will be defending the decision.
