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.

The Wellington - Revived?
A while ago I posted that The Wellington pub was to be demolished.

Well it looks like I was wrong, although at the time of the post I think the info was correct.
The pub is being refurbished and being made into flats. I think previous news across the inter-web suggested that it would be demolished to make way for flats.
Here is a photo showing the current work:
Photo when it was boarded up.
You can see that in the more recent photo the roof has had a lot of work done to it.

Electric Vehicle charging comes to the Borough
It's taken a long time, but soon Havant Borough Council owned car parks will have 48kW EV rapid chargers installed. The chargers will be a part of the Genie Point network:

I believe these will charge a car to about 80% in 30 minutes, which is probably reasonable for a car park scenario. Ah it makes a change to post some local news and something positive!
