Map of Itchen, South and Test Quays

The Itchen Quays were opened in stages between 1875 and 1892. Lying on the River Itchen they provided facilities for cargo, mail and vehicle shipment. At the south end of the docks is South Quay, followed by the Test Quays, opened in 1902. Used mainly by Union-Castle services to South Africa, the cold storage and ice warehouse was located at these berths with timber sheds behind.

The maps in this section show Southampton as it was in 1944.
