Cherque Farm

Cherque Farm is a residential development of 1063 homes situated on the South Coast of England in Lee-on-the-Solent, Hampshire.

A new access road, Cherque Way, forms its eastern boundary and provides links to the main road network with separate access to the site and all the adjoining facilities of this coastal location.

Persimmon Homes bought the site in Hampshire from Hall Aggregates (South Coast) Ltd and Cemex UK Properties Ltd in 1999 for £29.9m.

The Cherque Farm site in Lee-On-The-Solent had been used for sand and gravel extraction and, later, for landfill.

Some of the landfill waste gave rise to a problem with methane gas which Persimmon had to deal with as condition of building on the site.
