Peel Common is a mixed residential and light‑industrial area on the eastern edge of Fareham in Hampshire, England. It contains business parks and industrial units as well as housing, and benefits from being within easy reach of the M27/A27 corridor, making Portsmouth, Southampton and the Solent readily accessible for commuters and freight.
The name hints at its origins as common land, and today it sits close to Fareham town centre while offering practical local amenities for residents and workers. Economically it is notable for providing local employment in small and medium enterprises, and socially it functions as a suburban neighbourhood for people who work across the wider Hampshire and coastal conurbations.
