Swanwick Shore
This shows Swanwick Shore Road about 1 mile away from Sarisbury Green at the bottom of the hill. The road came off the A27 roughly opposite the Red Lion Inn at Lower Swanwick and followed the shore of the River Hamble through Moody's Boatyard. At spring tides, this road was often covered at this point at high tide. My aunt and uncle lived in a houseboat at the end of the road - about 150 yards from the point where the road disappears around the bend to the left. They moved there in 1958 and I lived with them from Jan 1968 until June 1970. I walked along the road everyday to and from either the station at Bursledon or the bus stop for buses to Woolston or Southampton opposite the Red Lion.
