Bus in Hillgrove Road turning circle, Townhill Park
First Southampton 40629, a Dennis Dart/Alexander Dash new to Yorkshire Rider (which became part of FirstBus when its owners, Badgerline, merged with GRT), pauses in the turning circle built into the bottom of Hillgrove Road where it meets Meggeson Avenue; it is operating route 8 to Lordshill via Southampton city centre. At this time, the routes serving Townhill Park did so on a one way loop, so most buses did not bother going round the turning circle. I have fond memories of going on these buses in Leeds, so it was a pleasant surprise to find one in Southampton.

Bus on Meggeson Avenue, Townhill Park
First Southampton 34071, a long wheelbase Volvo Olympian/Northern Counties Palatine new to Stagecoach Viscount, thunders along Meggeson Avenue while traversing the Townhill Park and Midanbury loop before returning to Southampton city centre on route 3A. In an attempt to address the large number of elderly double deckers in its fleet, First had recently acquired a significant number of secondhand midlife Olympians, hence this former Stagecoach bus being part of its Southampton fleet.

Forest Hills Drive, Townhill, Southampton
1960s housing a short way east of Woodmill Bridge. The south side of the road is built on quite a steep bank. Beyond the houses on the north side is a broad swathe of parkland along the River Itchen.

Southampton: River Walk, Townhill Park
This attractive arcade of black alder (?) trees is very much the home of the learner driver, with as many as a dozen at a time vying with another to practice reversing manoeuvres around one another. The river in question is the Itchen, off to the right here.

Putt Course in Riverside Park, Southampton
This park runs beside the River Itchen and happens to be exactly in line with the runway of Southampton International Airport, so you can see low flying aircraft either taking off or landing. The picture shows seven of the holes in the evening light. (Well, I had to find some use for my new 400 mm lens)
