Recorded August 16, 2008. Southampton the largest city in the ceremonial county of Hampshire, on the south coast of England, and is sited around 62 miles south-west of London. Southampton is a major port and lies at the northernmost point of Southampton Water at the confluence of the River Test and River Itchen. The town itself has an estimated population of 231,200. This video covers my visit to the city preceding my 28-day voyage on the Sea Princess. The video begins along the River Test and the port area. Next I walk through downtown, around the Civic Centre, past the Bargate and through a city park. From: timvp.com
