Hampshire · GU17
Planning exterior work in Blackwater and Hawley
From Hawley into GU17, the plot changes faster than a regional brochure suggests. Blackwater straddles the Hampshire/Berkshire boundary along the A30 with 1960s-90s estates either side. The Blackwater River and lakes mean a higher water table on the eastern side, while the A331 corridor brings traffic noise that drives demand for enclosed rear-garden rooms.
