West Street
West Street
West Street begins at the junction with High Street and runs westward becoming part of B2150 at the Green Man junction, continuing beyond the Village boundary and the junction with Fareham Road towards Denmead via Well Hill. Confusingly West St is bisected at the junction with Green Lane where the latter has right of way giving the impression when travelling west from the village centre that one is joining a different road. To reduce confusion we do talk about Upper West Street (being the easterly section) and Lower West Street the westerly section.

Lower West Street
At the beginning of Lower West St, to the left on the south side is a pair of Edwardian mock tudor semi-detached homes, Downings and St Davids. In the 1930s the plot of land west of St Davids was still a vegetable garden but is now occupied by two generous sized semi-detached family homes built in the 1970s.
