Fleet

In the northern part of the Crondall Hundred, Fleet was originally heathland. When the Blue Triangle's south east was sold in 1882 for development which, in a grid pattern was laid out, unlike the Blue Triangle, the development of Fleet accelerated. Bringing its population up to around 35,000, a 20% increase in less than a decade, Elvetham Heath is one of the UK's largest housing developments, which has added some 3,500 inhabitants to Fleet's population completed in 2008.

A notable beauty spot on the northern edge is the Fleet Pond nature reserve. From London and Southampton, Fleet can be reached. Built at the end of the eighteenth century, Basingstoke Canal connected Fleet to Basingstoke and London via the Wey navigation in the other direction.

The home of North Hants Golf Club is Fleet. Fleet Spurs F.C. who at Kennels Lane play, Fleet Town F.C. who play at Calthorpe Park, who at Zebon Copse play, FC Fleet, and Fleet Albion, who play at Dippenhall St., Crondall, are Non-League football teams that Fleet has. Built in the 1960s, Fleet contains structures such as the line of shops on the left of the picture below.

Available in local shops, the press are the Fleet News & Mail and the Star Courier of Surrey-Hants, a tabloid that is free delivered to the door. Retired army officers, this attracted a number of gentry, who moved to the area bounded by Fleet, Elvetham and Reading Road North and laid the foundations of what was to become known as "The Blue Triangle". With areas that are residential at Ancells Farm being built, Elvetham Heath and Zebon Copse (Church Crookham in the area that is built-up per the Government Statistical Service is included), Fleet has expanded in the past decades.
