About

Peel Common ward lies on the northern edge of Gosport, characterised by residential neighbourhoods and significant areas of open space. The housing is primarily a mix of post-war estates and more modern developments, providing homes for a large portion of the borough's population. The area is bordered by the Newgate Lane and Alver Valley green corridors, which separate it from neighbouring Fareham.

A notable feature is the Peel Common water recycling centre, a major regional facility that serves much of south Hampshire. The ward also contains the large Brune Park Community School campus and playing fields. Much of the local landscape is defined by the Alver River, which flows through the valley's meadows and wetlands before reaching the Solent.
