About Southampton - show info hide info

Southampton is a city and major port situated on the south coast of England opposite the Isle of Wight. Southampton is the closest city to the New Forest and lies at the northern-most point of Southampton Water approximately halfway between Portsmouth and Bournemouth. Although historically a part of the county of Hampshire, the city became an independent unitary authority in local government re-organisations on April 1, 1997. This makes Southampton an administrative county in its own right though it remains part of Hampshire for ceremonial purposes and in common usage. Under the name of Southampton there are several districts within the city, including Woolston, Bitterne, Portswood, Bassett, Shirley, Millbrook and Swaythling. Southampton was founded on the site of Roman and Saxon settlements, it has long been a major port, especially for passenger ships.
