Liss Parish Council formally took over management of the area of under-used land between The Oval and The Roundabouts on Mill Road from East Hampshire District Council in summer 2023.

Using funding from developers, the land has been transformed into a vibrant community garden. Designed to be a socially inclusive and inviting open space, a wheelchair and pushchair accessible pathway links the surrounding housing to the road. Features include a natural play mound with a tunnel, a trim trail, sociable seating, a fruit orchard, an additional bin and a dog poo bag dispenser to encourage dog walkers to use the space responsibly. Wild flowers will be planted in due course. The area was designed following consultation with local residents in December 2019.
