Fleet is locally famous for Fleet Pond, the largest freshwater lake in Hampshire, and quaint High Street with traditional Victorian and Edwardian look and its market.
==History==
The site of Fleet was originally heathland in the northern part of the Crondall Hundred. The name ''Fleet'' was probably derived from the Norman French word ''La Flete'' meaning ''a stream or shallow water'' - a reference to the Fleet Pond from which fish had been taken for the monks in Winchester in Medieval times.
