Compass Road
Street guide, Hamble
Compass Road is a residential street off Satchell Lane, with housing from the latter part of the twentieth century. The nautical name continues the maritime theme found throughout Hamble's street plan. The properties are generally detached houses of a good size, and some enjoy views or glimpses of the River Hamble. The street is a cul-de-sac, ensuring minimal traffic and a quiet living environment. Residents are within walking distance of Mercury Marina and the river, and the village centre is accessible via Satchell Lane and Hamble Lane. The street has a suburban character that differs from the older village core but benefits from the same proximity to the water that defines Hamble as a place.
