A blog about lovely Waterlooville, a small, environmentally damaged town in Hampshire, UK. Waterlooville was founded after the Battle of Waterloo in 1815, as troops from that conflict returned home and passed through Hampshire. Having grown from a small village to a suburban sprawl, Waterlooville faces serious environmental challenges today and in the future.

Waterloovilles fields about to be saved?
It's good news to see that the House of Commons Environmental Audit select committee has recommended that greenfield developments pushed forward by the government should be slowed down or halted completely. With a bit of luck and a building industry in serious trouble, our fields will remain.

Unfortunately to say this, it is not likely as the Old Park Farm area of the MDA I believe has got planning permission, as well as this, the well underway repositioning of the roundabout by Asda makes it look as if development is soon to commence.
