So here we are, the anniversary of a Village Meeting that threw Chilbolton into a state of shock and turmoil. Its impact has rippled through an entire year, threatens to do so next year, and perhaps for years to come. It’s time to look back at an evening in December 2024.

Chilbolton Parish Council has announced the resignation of Cllr Julian Hudson as Chair of CPC and as a Councillor.

In a long meeting last night, the Parish Council covered a lot of ground. The most eye-catching item was a proposal to counter the limited traffic survey in James Painter’s planning application, with something more comprehensive.

“It started at that meeting last December: their ‘vision’ was more of a nightmare.”

It’s a story we’ve heard before, but in this case it led Nicola Revolta to become a member of the action group “Cherish Chilbolton”.

Another well-attended meeting at the Village Hall this morning set villagers to work to help form the Parish Council’s response to James Painter’s 75 home proposal.
