Fire Safety Services in Bordon
Bordon is a small but rapidly developing town located in East Hampshire, officially forming part of the Whitehill civil parish. Set within the scenic Woolmer Forest, Bordon has a population of around 16,000 and lies approximately 5 miles southeast of Alton, with nearby towns including Farnham, Liphook, and Haslemere. Historically a military garrison town, Bordon was home to a major British Army presence from the early 20th century until the military withdrawal in 2015. Since then, Bordon has been the focus of a significant regeneration programme aimed at creating a sustainable, modern town.
Bordon is situated along the A325 with easy access to the A3, offering strong road links to Alton, Farnham, Guildford, and the south coast. Although the town once had its own station via the Bordon Light Railway (closed in 1966), the nearest railway access today is at Liphook station, about 4 miles away, providing services to London Waterloo and Portsmouth. Stagecoach South bus services connect Bordon to nearby towns including Alton, Aldershot, Liphook, Basingstoke, and Petersfield. Neighbouring areas include Whitehill to the south, Headley and Headley Down to the north, and Lindford to the west.
The local economy is being transformed by the Whitehill & Bordon regeneration project, a multi-million-pound initiative to create new homes, a vibrant town centre, employment opportunities, and community spaces. Key employers in the area include Morrisons, the BASE Bordon Innovation Centre which supports start-ups and tech businesses, and a growing number of retail, leisure, and service providers. While the departure of the Ministry of Defence shifted the local economic base, the town is now focused on sustainability, green infrastructure, and local enterprise.
Community facilities in Bordon include a modern leisure centre, The Phoenix Theatre and Arts Centre, a new skatepark and sports pavilion at Hogmoor Inclosure, and a network of parks and green spaces. Schools include Bordon Infant School, Weyford Primary, Woodlea Primary, and Oakmoor School for secondary education. Plans for the future include additional retail developments, new housing, and potential reinstatement of the rail link between Bordon and Bentley. With its combination of natural setting, ambitious redevelopment, and expanding local amenities, Bordon is emerging as one of Hampshire’s most forward-looking towns.
