Southampton Town Walls & Western Esplanade
West Quay and West Gate - This area was known as the West Quay, and was the busiest part of Southampton. The Quay stretched out into the river Test, where ships unloaded their cargo. This was still part of the shore until the 1920s, when land was reclaimed to build the western docks. Imported goods from all over Europe were unloaded in the area, including wine. Wool was the main export commodity to depart from here. It was from this quay that the Pilgrim Fathers actually left Southampton to go to America in 1620, in the Mayflower and Speedwell; however, due to the Speedwell's poor condition, it was abandoned at Plymouth, and the Mayflower travelled to America alone.
The Westgate was built in 1380, and was the only access to the Quay from the town. Inside the gate was a double portcullis; 'murder holes', where weapons can be dropped from above; and cannon. The angled gun ports are quite rare in England. This gate was the second most important in the town, after the Bargate. It was through this gate that Edward III and his bowmen left for France and the Battle of Crecy in 1346; and in 1415 Henry V passed through with his troops to embark on the second largest fleet ever assembled at Southampton en route for France and the Battle of Agincourt. Only the fleet assembled for D-Day was bigger. The Pilgrim Fathers also passed through this gate.

Southampton Town Walls
DAY 02. This was Father's Day for me, and we spent it walking around Southampton for about two hours before we were to get on board the Norwegian Jade. The temps started out in the upper 50s, but quickly fell with the rain that was clearly on the way in this video.
Yes, we were all suffering from jet lag, and it is quite obvious in our faces that this was on our minds.
Everyone we've encountered here has been simply delightful. My affinity for British people continues to grow with every minute we are in this country.
Walking in SOUTHAMPTON / England (UK) ????????- 4K 60fps (UHD)
We visit Southampton, in southern England, one of the warmest and sunniest cities in the UK. The area was settlement since Roman and Saxon times while the city became walled during the middle ages. Some parts of these defences remain in the city which we will visit on this tour.
We start our walk at the Titanic Engineers' Memorial at East Park dedicated to the engineers who died in the Titanic disaster on 15 April 1912.
We head south on the Above Bar St passing the Guildhall and the also then west to the SeaCity Museum. We finish circling this block to head south again through the shopping area to the Bargate and medieval town walls.
Going further south we head to the old town with some houses from the 12th and 14th century the like Tudor House. On our way to the sea we also see the the Watergate ruin. We reach the ferry terminal where we end this tour.

Si quieres conocer Southampton, la ciudad medieval y portuaria que vio partir el Titanic, e incluso trabajar y vivir en ella no te pierdas este vídeo.
Antes de hacer turismo en Southampton y adentrarte en su mapa tienes que saber que no es solamente una ciudad portuaria cualquiera, ya que cuenta con el puerto de mercancías más grande del Canal de la Mancha y es desde donde parten la mayor parte de los cruceros de Inglaterra hacia el mundo, como así lo hizo el Titanic, aunque esta historia desgraciadamente no tuvo un final feliz.
Southampton City se encuentra en el sur de Inglaterra, y es una joya que jugó un papel importante en la historia de toda la Gran Bretaña. Muchas personas vienen a hacer Turismo a Southampton para conocer incluso su mítico club Southampton Fc y el precioso St. Mary’s stadium.
Dato curioso, antes de presentarte los puntos turísticos de Soton es que por el Canal de Shinnecock pasan todas las embarcaciones y aeronaves que vienen desde el Océano Atlántico. Es por ello que es una de las ciudades con más historia de la construcción naval en la Great Uk Britain.
La ciudad es preciosa, y cuenta con muchos parques, como el Southampton Common, y si quieres saber qué significa esta ciudad para un español o hispanohablante simplemente se lo tienes que preguntar a los más de 1000 españoles y latinos que viven en Southampton.
