Encyclopedia > River Wallington

The River Wallington is a small river in south Hampshire flowing past Fareham, before entering Portsmouth Harbour.


It has a reputation locally as a river prone to flooding. When the river broke its banks in 2001 there was significant damage to many houses in North Wallington and Wallington Shore Road. Since then Fareham Borough Council has introduced a number of measures to minimise the effects of flooding, including bulldozing the river bed adjacent to Broadcut.

Wallington: a brief history (1218 words)
The Manor of Wallington was in the hands of the Dymoke family who may have been non-resident and therefore did not need a large house.
Wallington Green may be an old village green but there is no record of any building around it before the late 18th century when Wrights Row and the old houses along the west side of Manor Road were constructed.
By 1913 the centre of Wallington has moved south and the 'high street' was along Woodcote Road to the south of the railway station.
