The Environment Agency has asked for a condition to be attached to any permission for the 75-home planning application.

They want to protect the Chilbolton Supersite, located at the Observatory, from air pollution from the site during construction.

The Community Development Committee are moving ahead to draw up initial plans for the potential Gravel Hill site.

Following feedback from villagers, they will investigate moving the site away from the corner of the field, closer to the Gravel Hill farm buildings.

Hampshire County Council’s Highway Authority have agreed the routing for construction traffic to and from the Test Valley Farm site.

Routing will be via Coley Lane from the Mayfly junction, right onto Drove Road, then right onto Little Drove Road.

Chilbolton Parish Council have written to TVBC, objecting.

At the Annual Parish Assembly, Chilbolton Parish Councillors sent a clear message to villagers: “Now is the the time to respond to TVBC planners about the proposed 75-home development.”

Villagers attending the Annual Parish Assembly were treated to a presentation on the efforts being made by the Pan-Parish River Pollution Forum to clean up our local rivers - the Test, the Anton and the Dever.
