Description

232 service family accommodations

Split into two phases, Middle Wallop SFA is made up of 232 Officer and Ratings houses that serve the Army Air Corps at the training school.

The new houses were designed to replace existing Ministry of Defence (MOD) houses which were beyond repair. The development was arranged in a variety of new streets, lanes and squares, creating a sense of community and areas of visual interest with architectural focal points. A small palette of house types reflects the Hampshire vernacular with the use of local red stock brick, flint and tile hanging.

The project has a central village green, generous areas of open space with play areas for varying ages and a comprehensive network of cycleways and footpaths.
