The place is described in text Cobbett 1830
... Those scenes of glorious loyalty, the sea-port places, are beginning to be deserted. How many villages had that scene of all that is wicked and odious, Portsmouth, Gosport, and Portsea; how many villages has that hellish assemblage beggared! It is now being scattered itself! ... There is an absolute tumbling down taking place, where, so lately, there were such 'vast improvements Ma'am!' ...
Period - 19th century, early
Portsmouth ... a part of the town called Portsea, built on what was formerly called Portsmouth Common, and is now above four times larger than the parent town.
