Reviews of The Watergate ruin
P. B.
A wonderful ruin of an important tower and part of the historic medieval walls of Southampton.
The Watergate was a collection point for taxes and duties. It was built in the early 14th century, when goods were unloaded directly onto the shore. The Town Quay, with its wooden crane, was built a hundred years later. The Watergate, except for its western tower, was pulled down in 1804. The walls to the east were demolished in the same century when great warehouses were built and with the increase of traffic.
P. P.
Constructed in the late C14 following the disastrous French raid, the Water Gate provided secure access from the commercial part of old town to Town Quay. Largely demolished some 400 years later, it formed a key part of the town walls circuit which is still impressive today and is worth walking, particularly the real West Quay section (not the ghastly shopping centre).
B. F.
An Old City Wall good for a quick photo opportunity
Y. K. T.
This is a very good place near market to make fun shopping in Southampton.
T. C.
