 However, this changed quickly with the London overspill and Kempshott soon became part of Basingstoke.The housing was largely built in the 1970s and early 1980s in three phases referred to and having the roads named after, Lakes (Between Homesteads Road and Pack Lane), Flowers (East side of Kempshott Lane, south of Homesteads Way), and Birds (West side of Kempshott Lane).In recent years an additional housing development referred to as Gabriel Park was built and is situated at the A30 end of Kempshott Lane.
