12 scintillating and utterly fantastic picture memories of Cosham in Portsmouth

Cosham has changed quite a lot over the years, as these beautiful images show. Until the 1920s it was a small village surrounded by just fields, with it eventually expanding both east and west along the slopes of Portsdown Hill.

In this selection you will see some interesting views of the High Street, the Carlton Cinema badly damaged during the Blitz, a very busy Cosham fairground in 1910 and a lovely view of the level crossing with the Railway Hotel behind.
