A long Parish Council Meeting covered both Gravel Hill and the 75-home proposal. Throughout the meeting, questions were raised by Councillors and residents over the need for, and the siting of any 25-home development.

Bizarrely, this even extended to the probity of Councillors and what their wives are doing.

At a Cherish Chilbolton open coffee morning yesterday, residents were asking what is happening with the proposed 75 home development. They also suggested that the Parish Council should hold a public meeting to update and keep residents informed.

Candidates have been announced for the Test Valley Central Division of Hampshire County Council, which includes Chilbolton.

Cllr David Drew, Conservative, has represented this Division since 2021.

Cherish Chilbolton are holding an informal coffee morning this coming Saturday, 11 Apr 2026, between 10:00am and midday.

They’re keen to hear ideas for what the Village can do to prevent over-development in Chilbolton.

A well-supported litter pick covered two main routes into Chilbolton today: Martins Lane and Coley Lane.

Two squads were deployed, one in the morning and one in the afternoon.
