Community Facilities
Catering for the growth in population, new community facilities have been provided, including a library and a golf centre. A children's paddling pool has been built on the recreation ground that was once part of Botley Common.
A community theatre/cinema (The WAVE) has been built at Wildern School with support from Eastleigh Borough Council. A new professional theatre on the site, funded by the Borough and Town Councils, with seating up to 300 members of the local community, was completed in 2011. The Berry Theatre has gained a strong reputation in its opening months for drama, comedy, music, dance and film.
