Overview and Development of Eastleigh Borough
The Borough of Eastleigh adjoins the eastern and northern boundaries of Southampton, bordering Test Valley
Borough to the north-west, Winchester District and the South Downs National Park to the north, Fareham
Borough to the east with a shared boundary along the Hamble River and its estuary, and New Forest District to the
south-west via a shared boundary in Southampton Water.
The Borough is relatively small, with a land area of 79.8 square kilometres (km2) or 7,980 Hectares (Ha). Its main
town is Eastleigh, although there are two other large urban areas – Chandler’s Ford and Hedge End – and some
sizeable settlements at Bishopstoke, Fair Oak, Horton Heath, West End, Bursledon, Botley, Hamble and Netley. It is
predominantly sub-urban in character, reflecting many of the pressures expected in a location bordering a major
city, but it retains some areas of countryside that are locally significant, mainly because of the separation they
provide between settlements, but also because of their biodiversity and landscape characteristics.
Significant features of the Borough include an internationally renowned sailing venue at the River Hamble, a
national cricketing venue at the Rose Bowl, Southampton International Airport, dance and music venues of
regional significance at The Point and the Concorde Club in Eastleigh, Fleming Park Leisure Centre at Eastleigh, The
Berry Theatre at Hedge End, and an important maritime, rail and air heritage.
For administrative purposes, the Borough is divided into 5 local areas, each with a local area committee (LAC) that
determines planning applications: Bishopstoke, Fair Oak and Horton Heath (BIFFOH); Bursledon, Hamble and
Hound (BHH): Chandler’s Ford and Hiltingbury (CFH); Eastleigh (ELAC); Hedge End, West End and Botley (HEWEB).
There are 10 civil parishes, and the only area that is not parished is the town of Eastleigh.
Using 42 statistical variables, the Office of National Statistics (ONS) has rated the Borough as having extremely
similar characteristics to 4 of the 432 local authority areas in England. Stated in order of the most similar first,
these 4 areas are: South Gloucestershire, Fareham, Tonbridge and Malling, and Test Valley.

Map of Lower Super Output Areas (LSOAs) Boundaries
LSOAs are ward sub-divisions used for collating national statistics. Created to average around 1,500
residents each and include similar dwelling types (based on size and tenure), LSOAs do not always align
with natural neighbourhood boundaries.

10 Boundaries for Local Areas, Parishes, Wards and LSOAs
The table below compares the boundaries of the Borough’s Local Area Committees, Civil Parishes, Borough
Electoral Wards, and Lower Super Output Areas (LSOAs - the smallest area for which comparative statistics are
available). When Civil Parishes or LSOAs appear more than once their names are followed by (1) or (2). Where
LSOAs cross Ward boundaries, their names appear twice and are followed by the fraction of their area that is
found in each Ward e.g. (17%), with the name of the smaller part of the divided area shown in italics.
