About

Fareham town centre sits at the head of Fareham Creek, where the high street meets a market that runs several days a week on West Street. The shopping centre and a mix of 18th- and 19th-century brick buildings line Broad Street and West Street, while Fareham railway station lies a short walk from the town's shops. The creek and adjacent saltmarsh form a visible edge to the centre, influencing local pedestrian routes and small boat moorings along the quay.

East of the centre, Cams Hill occupies a ridge above the creek and is best known for Cams Hill School and the Cams Hall estate. Cams Hall, built in the 18th century, stands within parkland that includes a golf course and former estate lodges, with roads running along the ridge named Cams Hill Road. Residential streets slope down toward the creek and link directly to the town centre, making the area compact and walkable.
