Many residents of Elvetham Heath (near Fleet in Hampshire) and the surrounding area are opposed to the proposal to open a new Lidl foodstore.
For enquiries please contact admin@rale.org.uk
The developers of the proposed Lidl at Elvetham Heath's green gateway have appealed the Council’s decision to refuse planning permission.
An Inspector appointed by the Secretary of State will hold an Inquiry to determine the case.
The inquiry will open on 2nd June 2026 at 10:00.
Members of the public may attend the Inquiry and, at the Inspector's discretion, express their views.
The Inquiry will be live streamed at: https://www.youtube.com/@hartdistrictcouncilstreami2678/streams
If you wish to participate in the Inquiry email appeals@hart.gov.uk for details.
Who Owns the Land?
Who Owns the Land?
The Calthorpe family owns the land. The freehold for the site "Land At, Elvetham Heath Way, Fleet" (Title Number HP800376) is registered to Madaket Limited of 76 Hagley Road, Birmingham B16 8LU.
The sole director of Madaket Limited is Sir Euan Hamilton Anstruther-Gough-Calthorpe. Sir Euan and his family live on their estate in Elvetham, northwest of Fleet. The Elvetham Estate website states:
"The Calthorpe family remain committed to helping the local community and environment flourish for generations to come"
"We cherish our role in enriching the local countryside environment and are dedicated to fostering a thriving local community"
Is clogging up Elvetham Way and the Fleet Road roundabout, increasing air pollution, removing vegetation to create a 107 space car park, and further decimating town centre trade consistent with these statements?
