-THE 5 [LOCAL AREA COMMITTEES] OF [EASTLEIGH]-
.
*the borough of eastleigh is a ‘local government district’ and ‘borough’ in ‘hampshire’ (‘england’)*
bordering…
the ‘unitary authority’ of ‘southampton’,
‘test valley’,
the ‘city of ‘winchester”,
and the ‘borough of ‘fareham”*
.
(‘eastleigh’ is separated from the ‘new forest’ by ‘southampton water’)
(‘water’ bounds much of the borough, with ‘southampton water’ and the ‘river hamble’ bordering the ‘east’ and ‘southwest’ of the district)
(the built-up nature of neighboring ‘southampton’ and the ‘urban area’ around the town of ‘eastleigh’ contrast with the rural nature of much of the borough, which lies within the ‘hampshire basin’)
(the original ‘eastleigh’ borough was formed in ‘1936’ following the incorporation of the former ‘eastleigh urban district council’)
(the borough as it is today was formed in ‘1974’, when the existing ‘borough of eastleigh’ expanded to include part of the former ‘winchester rural district’ as a result of the ‘local government act of 1972’)
(the name of the borough was chosen by the children’s author ‘charlotte mary yonge’)
(there are 8 ‘parishes’ within the ‘borough’, but some areas are ‘unparished’ and controlled directly by the ‘borough council’, which has 44 seats)
(the council’s headquarters is in the town of ‘eastleigh’ itself)
(the ‘borough’ is also served by 7 ‘county councillors’ and 2 members of “parliament”)
(the borough’s latin motto, “salus populi suprema lex” translates as “the welfare of the people is the most important law”)
(‘eastleigh’ is rather urbanized with a population of ‘125,900’ in the ‘2011 census’ and a high ‘population density’)
(however, that population is in better ‘general health’ than the ‘south east region’ and the ‘country’)
(the ‘borough’ is served by 2 ‘motorways’ and 7 ‘railway stations’ as well as containing an ‘international airport’)
(there is also a ‘ferry’ linking ‘hamble-le-rice’ in ‘eastleigh’ to ‘warsash’ in ‘eareham’, and a disused ‘canal’ running through the north of the borough)
(there are 8 ‘scheduled ancient monuments’ and around 180 ‘listed buildings’ in the borough, with ‘netley abbey’, ‘bursledon windmill’, the chapel of ‘netley hospital’, and ‘netley castle’ among them)
(the borough also contains 8 ‘conservation areas’ and around 20,000 trees protected by ‘tree preservation orders’)
