Brilliant thread, SFCSim. I seem to have arrived at it quite late, but it’s great to look through all these pics. And, as the Kraken said above, you can’t help but feel angry about some of what has been lost, and particularly about what has replaced it.

If the people’s populas of Pap, could let me know which photos they like the most, then I can gage what to post rather than ransoms.
Also if anyone one has any interesting facts about certain areas or people/businesses of Southampton, that would be great as well.
Going to be posting some ads from the 60’s soon from the Southampton area.
Please vote up the ones you like as I do for comments and feedback made. As this take a lot of time, even if I am enjoying it!
That was the old Library I believe…on the corner of London Road and Cumberland Place. It was destroyed in the blitz and was for a long time just a grassy bank with a large advertising hording until redvelopment.

As requested, here are some of Eastleigh, well 9 as a matter of fact. I do not know Eastleigh at all, so only know what is written on some of them.
This looks like a town/civic hall.
right if anyone is there, I am going to make a coffee and I will be back with the rest.

The other side of Archers Road Eastleigh… Impressive row of terraces.
