The change in transport is also shown such as buses, railway, ferry and airfield, as well as schools, doctors’ surgeries and the fire brigade. Other important parts of Hamble are illustrated and the significant marine locations such as the Foreshore, Port Hamble North Yard and Hamble Point are not left out
