Points of interest
One of the most iconic locations is Southampton Bargate, a medieval gatehouse that once stood at the entrance to the vast dock area. It now sits in the very heart of the city centre, and is home to a heritage centre. Southampton’s most important historic property is Tudor House, which, unsurprisingly, dates from the Tudor period. The house was built in the 15th century but the garden behind this typically black and white-beamed property goes back another 300 years. You’ll also find plenty of entertainment venues, as well as the various departments attached to the university spread across the city, all of which are within easy reach of Portland Terrace Southampton car park.
