Southampton

About Southampton

Southampton combines the heritage of one of Britain’s most historic ports with exciting modern attractions. The old town, which is within walking distance or a short taxi ride away, is full of hidden treasures and has attracted famous residents and visitors including William the Conqueror, Henry V, William Shakespeare, and the Pilgrim Fathers – who set sail from here on the Mayflower. Bargate, originally the city’s main gateway, is the entrance to the historic area that’s home to England’s third longest stretch of unbroken medieval defensive walling.
