It’s a year and a half since the St Valentine’s Night storm damaged the Milford-on-Sea promenade and beach huts.
The delay in replacing the huts had become a controversial issue.
Now New Forest District Council has appointed engineers and architects to oversee the construction of 119 replacement beach huts.
Suddenly a number of consultations with beach hut owners and villagers are being held this month by New Forest District Council although many residents are likely to be away on holiday.
