Heath Road

Street guide, Titchfield

Heath Road crosses the Titchfield Common area, providing a connection between the village and the routes heading east towards Locks Heath and Warsash. The road takes its name from the heathland that formerly covered parts of this area before enclosure and development. Housing along Heath Road is predominantly twentieth-century, with a mix of inter-war and post-war properties. The road carries a reasonable amount of traffic as a through-route, and it connects to Common Lane and Hunts Pond Road. The character is suburban and residential, with houses set back from the road behind front gardens and hedges. Heath Road serves as a useful connection for residents of Titchfield Common who are heading towards the shopping and services at Locks Heath rather than into the village centre.
