The strategy has been led by Portsmouth City Council (PCC) and developed in partnership with the Environment Agency. This strategy, in combination with the Portchester Castle to Emsworth coastal flood and erosion risk management study (2009), completes the long-term strategic approach to Portsmouth’s entire coastline. 1.1.2 The study area is a low-lying island and is home to the City of Portsmouth, the UK’s only island city. The City is at significant risk of flooding with 4,211 residential, 364 commercial and 48 Ministry of Defence (MoD) properties currently at risk from a 0.5% annual exceedence probability of flooding (AEP) due to breaching of the existing coastal defences. 1.1.3 Due to climate change the number of properties at risk in 2109 for a 0.5% AEP event would increase

McGrath History and Description Fort Cumberland, designed to defend Portsea Island’s Eastern flank, was the last self-contained fully bastioned fortress constructed in England. It was the brainchild of the 3rd. Duke of Richmond, who, as Master general of the Ordnance, conceived it during an extensive Southern tour in 1782. He most likely envisaged a showpiece structure incorporating new techniques advocated by the Frenchman Montalembert. These were not, however, immediately acceptable to English Engineers trained more traditionally in the Vauban school. So a compromise was reached utilising casemates revived by Montalembert and Vauban’s bastions. The twenty-five year project involved thousands of transport-destined convicts representing a security nightmare but a cheap and semi-skilled labour force.

    FOR SALE FREEHOLD On the instruction of : THE ROYAL MARINES MUSEUM EASTNEY ESPLANADE, SOUTHSEA, HAMPSHIRE PO4 9PX “The most architecturally distinguished Officers’ barracks in England” A UNIQUE REDEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY SUITABLE FOR ALTERNATIVE USES (STP) INTRODUCTION The closure of the Museum and transfer of artefacts to Portsmouth Historic Dockyard into a new museum will broaden the massive appeal of the Royal Marines story and hence the existing building is now surplus to requirements. LOCATION Portsmouth lies at the centre of the South coast alongside the Solent, 65 miles south- west of London and 19 miles to the east of Southampton. The major part of the City lies on Portsea Island which is served by three road links to the mainland, the M275, the A3 London Road and the A2030 Eastern Road, all of which connect with the M27/A27. There is a mainline train service to London Waterloo, a passenger ferry service across the entrance to Portsmouth Harbour to Gosport, passenger and car ferry services to the Isle of Wight and passenger and car ferry services to France and Spain from the Portsmouth Continental Ferry Port. The population of the urban area is some 187,000 with an age demographic reflecting that of the UK. The property is located in Eastney on the south eastern corner of Portsea Island. The building itself is situated on the north side of Eastney Esplanade overlooking Eastney Beach and Seafront. Postcode: DESCRIPTION PO4 9PX The Museum is the former Officers’ quarters and mess completed circa 1865, designed by William Scamp (Director of the Admiralty Works dept) and is the principal building within the Eastney Barracks site.

  • Wartime Memories on Hayling Island
    Wartime Memories on Hayling Island Noel Pycroft and John Rogers Wing Commander Jan P. Falkowski, V.M., K.W., D.F.C. No. 303 Polish “Kosciuszko” Fighter Squadron. Memories of the Sinah Gun Site by Hazel Gould (née Plumbly) and an extract from Havant in the Second World War by Ralph Cousins Havant History Booklet No. 21 £6 Noel and Valerie Pycroft with a piece of the parachute worn by one of the aircrew who bailed out from the Wellington bomber that crashed near to Thorney Island on 28 December 1940. The airman landed near to Pilsey Island but unfortunately did not survive. Most of the parachute was shared out between their relations who turned it in to silk underwear. The Bomber Command War Diaries note for this date: France: 75 aircraft to factory at Bordeaux and 10 ports and airfields. 1 Blenheim and 1 Wellington lost; 4 aircraft crashed in England. It is most likely that this aircraft was one of the four. 2 These wartime memories are an extract from Hayling, An Island of Laughter and Tears by Noel Pycroft My love of the family home, church and people I have shared my life with has given me – instilled by my parents from childhood – a lasting interest in all things in this world, especially of Hayling Island, its history, development, work and worship. I have seen everything from early aircraft to supersonic monsters, horses and carts to lorries carrying 40 tons. From children poorly fed and clothed to our throw-away society – a far better if discontented world; progress goes on.
