Where is North Camp Village?
North Camp used to be the main shopping centre in
Farnborough before Kingsmead and Queensmead were built
in the 50s and 60s.
Roughly speaking the outline for North Camp follows
Farnborough Road to Lynchford Road, down Park Road
and Sycamore Road up to Boundary Road, where it comes
back to the Farnborough Road. Other definitions take
North Camp all of the way up to the Basingstoke Canal.
Some people will define North Camp as a larger area
with some suggesting it's smaller.
