About

The Harbourside & Town ward encompasses Gosport's historic core, centred around the High Street and its immediate connections to the waterfront. The area functions as the borough's primary retail and civic hub, with a mix of everyday shops, services, and the town hall. Its layout reflects its naval heritage, with narrow streets leading down to the harbour where ferries provide a constant link to Portsmouth across the water.

The maritime influence is deeply ingrained, visible in the architecture and the working boatyards along the quaysides. A specific local feature is the Gosport Submarine Museum, located on the waterfront, which houses the Royal Navy's first submarine. This area is a functional centre rather than a tourist precinct, defined by its practical relationship with the sea and its role as the town's administrative and commercial heart.
