Local knowledge

Coverage across council boundaries

Waterlooville itself sits within Havant Borough Council; some of the surrounding villages fall under neighbouring authorities — Denmead is within Winchester City Council, and Horndean, Clanfield and Rowland's Castle are within East Hampshire District Council. Party wall notice requirements are the same regardless of which authority applies; this is included for clarity, not because it changes anything about the Act.

Waterlooville and its surrounding villages are predominantly later 20th-century and modern housing rather than dense historic terraces — semi-detached and detached houses, along with newer estate development such as West of Waterlooville, a major new-build scheme still under construction on the town's south-eastern edge. Party wall matters here more often involve boundary walls, closely-set neighbouring structures, and excavation near modern cavity-wall foundations, rather than the shared party structures typical of older terraced housing. Havant and Emsworth are the exception — both have older, denser town centres with historic conservation status, where party wall matters can involve genuinely older solid-wall construction.

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

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
