Portsmouth - Spinnaker Tower






We took a walk around Old Portsmouth. What a fantastic place! They've put a lot of redevelopment money into it and it's worked well. The Spinnaker Tower, whilst much derided as a waste of money, is so graceful and completely changes the landscape. The Old Town is full of history and it's been presented in a way that makes it very accessible. We were so impressed we thought we'd like to live there! We had a good traditional fish and chip lunch in the Still & West. It all puts poor old Southampton in the shade.
