Local knowledge

Coverage across the Fareham area

Fareham itself, along with Portchester, Titchfield, Stubbington, Hill Head, Warsash, Locks Heath, Park Gate and Sarisbury Green, falls entirely within Fareham Borough Council. Whiteley sits across the boundary between Fareham and Winchester district — the exact council depends on the precise location within Whiteley, which is worth confirming when a notice needs to reference the correct local planning authority.

Fareham's historic core carries its own conservation status — Fareham High Street was designated a conservation area in 1969 and recognised for outstanding architectural and historic interest in 1977, covering the town's medieval burgage-plot layout around the parish church. Titchfield's conservation area, also designated in 1969, centres on a medieval core whose building stock ranges from Tudor and Jacobean through to Georgian and Victorian. Portchester's conservation area, likewise dating to 1969, protects the village setting around Portchester Castle, and Warsash's smaller riverside conservation area, designated in 1994, reflects its history as a fishing, coal and timber port on the Hamble.

Paul Kennedy, FPWS-qualified (Member No. PW.1543), acts for building owners and adjoining owners under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 across Fareham and the surrounding area, including preparation of notices, schedules of condition and party wall awards.

What this means for your project

Three situations, correctly noticed

The same three notice types apply here as anywhere else the Act covers — Section 1 (new wall at the boundary), Section 2 (work to an existing party wall), and Section 6 (excavation near a neighbouring building). Which applies depends on your specific drawings and works, not on which town you're in.

Section 1: Line of Junction NoticesSection 2: Party Structure NoticesSection 6: Adjacent Excavation Notices
