Woolston before the bridge (Second Hand)

Woolston Before the Bridge is a richly illustrated tribute to a community shaped by shipbuilding, shoreline industry, and quiet resilience. Compiled by Sheila Jemima and the Southampton Oral History Team, this volume captures the character of Woolston before the construction of the Itchen Bridge transformed its landscape and rhythms. Through archival photographs, personal recollections, and detailed commentary, the book evokes a time of ferries, foundries, and close-knit streets—preserving voices and vistas now lost to redevelopment. Ideal for genealogists, local historians, and those with ties to Southampton’s eastern shore.
