Another reminder of Bordon’s military past is set to disappear as a virtual exhibition to showcase plans for 146 new homes has gone live.

Life in Whitehill & Bordon seems have three certainties: death, taxes and a constant push to build more homes.

The latest big proposal comes from Vistry Group as they’ve outlined plans to redevelop land between Budds Lane, Oakhanger Road and Templars Way.

The development will be the fourth phase of the Prince Philip Park scheme which has seen hundreds of homes constructed on former military land with more to come.

The proposals are currently at a draft stage so Vistry Group wants residents to comment and make suggestions before lodging a firm planning application with East Hampshire District Council.

Leaflets have been distributed locally while the firm have encouraged residents to make comments through their https://phase4-bordon.squarespace.com website before the end of February.

The 4.39 hectare site earmarked for housing currently includes a community building, disused car park, former Army sports ground and a section of the Whitehill & Bordon Enterprise Park.

The development will include a mixture of one to five-bedroom homes with 15 per cent affordable housing along with landscaping and a play area.

“Significant areas of open space” have also been promised with access coming from the currently blocked-off car park on Budds Lane previously used by parents of Oakmoor students.

“The draft proposals have been sensitively designed,” said a spokesperson for Vistry Group.

“They include significant areas of open space, to create an attractive and landscape-led development, whilst delivering much needed new homes to help meet the housing needs of the area.

“This exhibition has been arranged to provide the community with the opportunity to view and comment on the draft proposals ahead of the scheme being finalised.”
