Visit Fleet and the surrounding villages and stay in bed & breakfast accommodation:
Fleet, Hampshire, has a population of about of 30,000.
Unusually for a town of this size it is not on a major road. Its development took place after the arrival of the railway in 1840 and people came from London to skate on Fleet Pond during the winter. Fleet grew as a market town. There are few very old buildings: much of the town today is constructed around Victorian buildings. There are many buildings belonging to the building boom era between the First and Second World Wars.
New housing estates have contributed to Fleet's size in the last few decades: Zebon Copse (in neighbouring Church Crookham), Ancells Farm and Elvetham Heath, the latter adding 6000 to the population when complete in 2007.
Transport:
