In a follow-up to the village meeting on 5 December the Parish Council’s Strategy Working Group have published a response to questions asked by residents. In it they reveal that the “current estimate” of the expected size of the whole development “is between 90-120 homes, depending on the precise layout”.

Chilbolton Parish Council (CPC) have put forward a plan to build 150 new homes in the village. An initial phase of this development comprising ten affordable homes, ten “downsizing” homes and five self-build homes, near Eastman’s Field could begin occupation as early as 2028.

Documents leaked from the Parish Council’s Strategy Working Group (SWG) reveal long-term plans to build 168 homes comprising 70 affordable homes, 70 “downsize” homes and 28 “self-build” homes.

Church Commissioners are investigating land in the corner of the field near the allotments for future housing development.
