Is your land in Fareham the kind we want?
In Fareham, the brownfield sites we look at are often tucked behind main roads or alongside older housing, close to services. In Hampshire, Fareham sits about 16 miles south of Winchester; Gosport and Portsmouth are its nearest neighbours on our list.
- Former industrial, commercial or depot sites
- Yards and builders' compounds within towns
- Land with buildings that would be demolished
- Sites with known contamination where the history is documented
Hampshire includes the cities of Southampton, Portsmouth and Winchester, the north Hampshire towns of Basingstoke, Farnborough, Aldershot and Fleet, and a large rural area. The New Forest and South Downs National Parks, several National Landscapes and Green Belt on the Dorset border in the south-west all constrain land. Typical sites include edge-of-town fields, farm buildings, infill plots and urban brownfield land.
Checks we make on brownfield land in Fareham
Contamination
Past uses can leave contamination; desk studies and site investigation show what remediation is needed.
Demolition and ground
Old foundations, tanks and services add cost, so we allow for them in our appraisal.
Employment land policy
Some councils protect employment land; we check whether a change to housing would be resisted.
The August 2026 NPPF supports homes within reasonable walking distance (around 800 metres) of well-connected railway stations, with minimum densities of 35 homes per hectare, or 45 near higher-frequency stations.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 121 miles from Fareham, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.
