Titchfield Road

Street guide, Hill Head

Titchfield Road runs from the Hill Head and Stubbington area northwards towards the historic village of Titchfield. The road passes through a transitional landscape, moving from suburban housing into more open countryside as it approaches Titchfield. This is a route well known to local residents, connecting the coastal community of Hill Head to the older settlement of Titchfield with its abbey ruins, pubs and village square. The road carries moderate traffic and is used by commuters heading to and from the A27. Housing along the Hill Head end of Titchfield Road is residential and suburban in character, while the northern sections become more rural. The road provides a reminder of Hill Head's historical connections to Titchfield, which was the dominant local settlement for centuries before the coastal villages developed.
