THE 'SOUTHAMPTON AND NEW FOREST ROAD' MAP. Compiled by Harry R. G. Inglis. SCALE: HALF AN INCH TO A MILE.

Description.- Class I. The favourite road from London. The road is paved as far as Wandsworth; after that the surface is fairly good as far as Kingston, where it becomes bumpy as far as Ditton. From Ditton right on to Guildford the road has magnificent surface with every slight undulations. The hill out of Guildford is steep at first - hardly dangerous - but after the first two miles the surface is magnificent until cose to Farnham, where it is bumpy, but immediately afterwards it improves, and is very fine to Alresford. There are two raods from Alresford to Winchester, the least hilly being by the Itchen valley, thus avoiding the steep descent to Winchester on the other road. From Winchester to southampton the surface is very good, but the road is somewhat hilly. There is a much more level route by Eastleigh, but the surface is often very loose, and it is not nearly so pretty. The main road to Winchester and Southampton is by Bagshot, but that road is very hilly, and the surface inferior to this route.

After Southampton the road has a splendid surface throughout, as a general rule, but very liable to be loose and flinty to Christchurch, whence good, but apt to be bumpy on through Bournemouth to Poole.

The road by Romsey and Ringwood to Poole, though shorter, is steep and hilly between Winchester and Romsey.

Gradients.- At 8 3/4 m. 1 in 23; 10 3/4 m. 1 in 25; 11 1/4 m. 1 in 22; 21 3/4 m. 1 in 22; 30 1/4 m. 1 in 14; 30 3/4 m. 1 in 12-17 (dangerous); 37 1/2 & 52 m. 1 in 24; 52 3/4 & 54 3/4 m. 1 in 18; 63 1/4 1 in 21; 70 1/4 1 in 18; 70 3/4 m. 1in 21; 71 1/2 m. 1 in 22; 72 1/2 m. 1 in 20; 74 m. 1 in 18; 76 m. 1 in 17; 85 1/2 m. 1 in 20; 90 1/4 m. 1 in 17; 93 1/4 m. 1 in 18; 94 1/4 m. 1 in 17; 96 1/2 & 105 3/4 1 in 19; 107 m. 1 in 18; 112 m. 1 in 16.

Milestones.- Measured from Royal Exchange, London, to Farnham, whence measured from London via Bagshot to Southampton, thereafter from Southampton to Lyndhurst, after which measured from High Street, Christchurch.
