The
New Forest is internationally known as an area of great
landscape and ecological value. It sits in the centre
of the New Forest District but around its edge are other
important areas requiring the highest standards of town
and country planning.
From the Cranborne Chase Area of Outstanding
Natural Beauty in the north-west, across the Avon
Valley to the Solent Coastline and along the western
shore of Southampton Water, the towns and villages
contain numerous Conservation Areas and Listed Buildings,
but also large areas of residential and commercial
development.
The planning service at New Forest District Council
strives to protect and enhance all of these areas
whilst promoting economic growth and essential facilities
for the 170,000 people who live the area.
