Well it has been a while, but some more “secrets” of Southsea – really paths just less trodden :-

Flat 1

A little alley off St Peters Grove.

The Narrowest Way

It doesn’t show it so much, but this is a really narrow alley off St Andrew’s Road.

The Secret Garden

Being an alley off Elm Grove (just opposite the funeral place).

The Hidden Flower

And back to the first image – looking back towards St Peter’s Grove.

Well that “secrets” is a little bit of an exaggeration; it’s possibly more “paths less trodden”. Bits of Southsea you are less likely to see even as a resident.

The Alley

For example, the alley between the Chinese takeaway and Sam’s Place on Grove Road South. Not exactly a public thoroughfare, but not entirely trespassing either.

The Courtyard

And at the end of the alleyway, is the courtyard and the front doors of a few places of residence.

Off Wilton Place

And around the corner, there’s an alley off Wilton Place … itself off Marmion Road.

Towards Wilton Place

And looking back towards Wilton Place.
