Notes

• 
The photo, by Lee Wilkins, dates from 18 Oct 2002.
• 
We believe this was one of only two stops in the city that still had a Citybus sign in situ (the other was on the opposite side of the road). Southampton Citybus ceased trading in 1997, so it was a surprise to see one of their stop signs here five years later.
• 
Both Southampton Citybus and Solent Blue Line ran services to the nearby town of Romsey from here. The number 8 (Citybus) ran on Sundays only; the 15 (Blue Line) ran Mondays to Saturdays.
