Western Docks, Southampton, sits within the SO 15 postal district of the city of Southampton. The locality is closely associated with the Port of Southampton, a passenger and cargo port situated in the central part of the south coast of England. The modern era of the port began when the first dock was inaugurated in 1843. Today, Southampton is the second‑largest container terminal in the United Kingdom after the Port of Felixstowe, handling 1.5 million twenty‑foot equivalent units (TEU). The port also accommodates cruise ships, roll‑on‑roll‑off vessels, dry bulk and liquid bulk cargo. This industrial backdrop gives the area a distinctive maritime character and a strong connection to the wider economic activity of the port. The proximity to the port means that the locality is embedded within a key logistics and transport hub on England’s south coast.
