Local Plan Part 1 - Joint Core Strategy Adopted March 2013

The Winchester District Local Plan Part 1 - Joint Core Strategy covers Winchester District but does not include the area that lies in the South Downs National Park (SDNP).

It identifies the amount of development, broad locations for change, growth and protection, including allocating strategic sites.
