very old city walls that have silently witnessed an astounding amount of history from the Normans and Vikings to the Spanish flu and WW2 air raids. The Old Wall is a great example of integrating the past and the future in a cityscape.

Was here a few weeks ago for the first time to take a cruise. The city has a lot of history. Nice to walk about on a cool day.

If these walls could talk, they'd be telling millions of stories. From Norman invasions, Viking raids to floods and German bombs, they've seen everything. They've weathered the storms, ariel attacks, stood the test of time and are still proudly standing. Only if today's builders and workmen applied the same work ethic to the roadworks that they do, we will not have to see the pointless red cones and useless temporary traffic lights clogging up our roads.

Where the old and new blend together in peace and harmony. This was our conclusion to the Southhampton old town walk.

One of the best surviving lengths of city walls in England, once overlooking the tide. Somewhat ignored by residents and city authorities who seem to believe corporate retail is more important than local heritage.
