This group focuses on the history of Fleet and Crookham (North East Hampshire), as we attempt to create an online archive for everyone to share, view, enjoy and hopefully contribute to!
Fleet has changed so much in the last 100 years and more. It would be great to share photos and memories to remember, remind and learn how special Fleet is. Please don’t forget that our community does not address, debate or attempt to resolve modern subjects and issues.
