It is the location of the Winnall Moors nature reserve on the flood-plain of the Itchen and the University of Southampton's Erasmus Park hall of residence.

It appears in its modern spelling on a 1575 map by Saxton. Winnall was an ancient parish , but was later absorbed by Winchester, and is not a modern civil parish.
