Stroud Green Allotment Proposals

Fareham Borough Council would like to hear your thoughts on our proposals for the provision of additional allotments on part of Stroud Green open space in Stubbington.

Stroud Green Allotments currently has 50 occupied plots and we would like to add a further 35 plots on part of the green. There are currently 77 residents on the allotment waiting list all of whom live in the Stubbington / Hill Head area. The allotments would only take up part of the open space with much of the current space remaining available to the public. There may also be opportunities for some small improvements to the open space.

Executive Member for Streetscene, Councillor Tiffany Harper, said: 'The new allotments would allow more local residents to enjoy the benefits of allotment gardening. Before we proceed with the proposals, we would like to hear what residents think.'

You can have your say by coming along to our consultation event on Stroud Green open space on Tuesday 6 June from 3pm to 7pm.

The consultation can also be accessed online at www.fareham.gov.uk/consultations.

The closing date for comments is Monday 19 June.
