What plumbing in Fordingbridge actually looks like

Known as the northern gateway to the New Forest, Fordingbridge features a mixture of historic brick cottages around the famous seven-arched bridge, post-war housing, and extensive rural agricultural properties across SP6.

Sourced from local chalk aquifers, Fordingbridge water has a hard mineral rating. Limescale build-up inside combi boilers, electric showers, and unvented hot water tanks is a consistent issue. Outer village homes around Sandleheath and Godshill frequently utilize oil boilers, LPG setups, or private septic tank drainage systems.
