Is Roeshot Hill Quarry About to Open?
As of December 2025, the approved Roeshot Hill Quarry site was listed as inactive (not yet operational, awaiting confirmation of an operator), with the haul road permission implemented.
However, signage has now appeared, which would seem to indicate the site may become active soon.
The 2016 application, approved in 2021, for the Roeshot Hill Quarry appears to be nearing operation. The application was described as:
"Extraction and processing of minerals, importation and treatment of inert materials, the erection of a concrete batching plant, workshop, offices, weighbridge and internal access to the A35 with progressive restoration using residual inert materials to agriculture, woodland and grassland".
Attached is information from the 2016 application:

- composite operation plan, showing all phases of operation overlaid
- progressive operation plans, showing each phase of operation separately
This site forms part of the 2013 Hampshire Minerals Waste Plan.
