| sea coast line |
The county of Hampshire is bounded on the south by the sea.
This boundary does not change much with changes of local or
national politics! but it is subject to change by nature. Rivers,
the sea, and winds change the shape of the land; sometimes
slowly, sometimes suddenly and dramatically. On Thomas Kitchin's map the sea is plain. Some sea areas are labelled, eg: Haling BayThe coast is drawn with form lines, continued into harbours and river estuaries. Some harbours are labelled, eg: Langston Harbourbut not Portsmouth Harbour! |
