Our public exhibition, held across
two days, was well attended and we
were particularly pleased with the
level of feedback from local residents,
businesses and councillors.
Adanac Park Development Framework
All the comments we received have
been carefully considered and, where
possible, have been incorporated into
the scheme that has now been lodged
with Test Valley Borough Council and
Southampton City Council.
An Economic Legacy
The proposals seek to unlock the economic potential of the site, delivering a significant number of jobs of different types. The
development will support inward investment and create opportunities for businesses to expand and deliver economic benefits.
Please see enclosed leaflet for further details on the wider economic benefits that will be delivered.

Adanac Park Submission Update
www.consultation-online.co.uk/adanacpark
The proposals seek to create a high
quality business and living location,
which focuses on enormous amounts
of inward investment and job creation,
along with landscaping and associated
infrastructure. The ten application
sites, which are located to the north
and south of the Ordnance Survey
head office, form a strategic 29ha
employment site next to the M271
motorway and west of the established
Nursling Estate.
The submitted proposals, which
are now with the Councils for
consideration, comprise a suite of
planning applications including B1,
B2 and B8 business types, which will
allow incoming and local expanding
companies to set up at Adanac Park.
In this community update
newsletter we hope to guide
you through the proposals for
Adanac Park.
We are keen to receive your feedback
and have included a postage paid
feedback card so you can let us know
your thoughts.

Site background
The employment led nature of
development, to be situated on
land adjacent to the M271, known
as Adanac Park, has been established
through planning permissions secured
in 2008 and 2009. However this came
with conditions that the site be used
mainly for office use of at least 10,000
square metres.
Despite continued marketing efforts
by the owners of the land, Barker-Mill
Estates, the criteria established in the
planning consents has led this prime
employment site to lay undeveloped –
delivering nothing to the community.
This position has acted as a barrier to
job generation and has stopped the
site making a meaningful contribution
toward supporting economic growth.
The current proposals for the site
are therefore flexible, enabling a
development that responds to the
needs of the market by accommodating
businesses and generating new jobs
and other economically beneficial uses.
Adanac Park Submission Update
Responding to local
comments
Barker-Mill Estates has taken on board
comments made by local residents
regarding the proposals, and the feedback
provided through the various forms of
consultation and stakeholder discussion
influenced the scheme in a number of
important ways, including:
• R
educing the amount of B8 floorspace
proposed north of Ordnance Survey;
• A
new office development to the north
of Ordnance Survey;
• A
care home use within the residential
development proposals at Nursling
Street;
• H
aving regard to comments when
determining the extent of residential
development proposed at Bargain
Farmhouse and Nursling Street;
• S
haping the form and scale of
employment proposals to meet
the needs of the market; and
• E
nsuring that the proposals for Adanac
Park were for an amenity restaurant,
rather than a traditional pub.

Design and appearance
Respecting the site’s existing landscape
and ecology
The approach taken by Barker-Mill Estates and its design
team has been to work with the existing features of the site
and surrounding area:
• T
he green boundary to Adanac Park will be retained and
improved to create a buffer from the M271
• H
ome Covert will be retained and an appropriate buffer
provided between the development and the woodland area
• W
ithin the site, green corridors will provide ecological and
amenity links across the Park, as well as serving to divide the site
into clear development parcels that are defined by landscape
The masterplan shown is ‘illustrative’ only, but it does demonstrate
a considered approach to the form of layout that would be
appropriate for this site.
This green perimeter acts as an attractive setting for
new development and provides a buffer between the
commercial nature of the site and existing residential
development.
metres
A number of protected trees are present on the site; these
will be retained and will be used as features of the design.
AP1:
Nursling Street Up to 26 residential units (C3) and
a residential care home of up to
80 bedrooms (C2).
AP2:
North Adanac Up to 4,100 sq m of storage and
distribution (B8) and / or general
industry (B2) floorspace.
The site benefits from access to the strategic highway network, being close to both
the M271 and the M27. Access to the development is taken from Brownhill Way
through an existing roundabout junction linking to Adanac Drive. To the north,
Nursling Street is a local road that serves a limited number of homes and businesses.
As well as providing the primary vehicular access, Adanac Drive constitutes the main
pedestrian and cycle connection on the site. It connects via a cycle/footway link
running from Nursling Street in the north along the western edge of the site.
Adanac Drive retains sufficient capacity to serve the range of new uses. This route
also provides direct public transport penetration to the site, with existing and new
bus stops to serve the businesses on site.

Key
Barker-Mill Estates understands that matters such as highways and parking are
crucial issues for existing local residents in connection with most planned new
developments. In order to ascertain the impact of the scheme with regard to
vehicle movements, a Traffic Impact Assessment has been completed and has been
submitted with the application. This demonstrates that the scheme will not have an
adverse impact on the local road network and will generate lower traffic levels at
peak times than that associated with the existing permission.
APDF-S-1: Illustrative Masterplan
(1:1,250)

The precise design, scale and siting of each building and its
individual appearance is left as illustrative at this stage, allowing
for flexibility and further evolution as the development is brought
forward over time.
The site benefits from the attractive wooded backdrop
of Home Covert along its eastern edge. There is also a
mature boundary of trees and hedgerows to the west and
south, providing a buffer from the M271. To the north, a
series of smaller hedgerows, dotted with isolated mature
trees, provide a framework for new development that can
be supplemented by further planting.
