Visiting
the Borough
Located in central southern Hampshire, the Borough is a
combination of coast,countryside, quiet villages and busy
towns. It stretches from Netley on the banks of Southampton
Water, the historic river villages of Hamble-le-Rice, Bursledon and
Botley, the developing areas of Hedge End, West End and Fair Oak
and the green residential belt of Chandler's Ford. The town of
Eastleigh with its excellent shopping, parking and
Help Point facilities and plenty
of opportunities for leisure and entertainment is the
administrative and commercial centre of the Borough.
With a population of over 117,000 the Borough has seen a rapid and
controlled expansion in residential,
industrial and
commercial development over recent years.
Excellent communication links by road (M3 & M27), rail and
air (Southampton International
Airport located within the Borough) have helped
promote the Borough as an ideal base for companies setting up
in the region. It is also ideally placed for visiting the natural
outstanding beauty of the New Forest, the Isle of Wight and the
Dorset coastline and the historic towns of Winchester, Salisbury
and Romsey.
