Help Shape the Future of Alresford’s Heritage Boards
New Alresford Town Council is beginning an exciting project to review and refresh the information boards located around the town, currently known as the Millennium Trail boards
These boards continue to play an important role in sharing Alresford’s rich history. However, the time has come to update, improve, and reimagine them for today’s residents and for future generations.
At present, there are six boards located at the following sites:
- Broad Street
- West Street (by the Church)
- The Dean (near Shapla)
- The Avenue (The Toll House)
- Arlebury Park
- Station Car Park
As part of this project, the Town Council is looking to update the existing boards, relocate some where appropriate, and expand the scheme to include around 15 boards across Alresford. This will allow a broader and more engaging picture of the town’s heritage to be presented.
As the Millennium is now some time behind us, we are also keen to find a new name for the boards , one that better reflects Alresford today while continuing to celebrate its history.
A number of potential locations for additional boards have already been identified, including:
- Bell House
- Bowling Club, Sun Lane
- The archaeological site discovered at the new Sun Hill development
- Prospect Road
- Stratton Bates
- The water meadow off Drove Lane
At this stage, we would welcome and appreciate any comments.
These should be emailed to Claire Boniface at: adminofficer@newalresford-tc.gov.uk
