Titchfield Canal Self Guided Walk

Duration: 1 hr 40 mins - 2 hrs 15 mins.

Parking: Car park off bridge street.

Accessibility: Some stiles and kissing gates.

Comments: Path can become flooded in bad weather, no short cuts.

The Walk

From the car park turn left, through the kissing gate, onto the path that leads alongside the canal. Continue along this path, straight past two farmers' bridge across the canal, until after some distance you will see a third bridge across the canal with a rights of way marker on a post.

 

Go through the narrow gap, around the wooden post and over the bridge, which will lead you onto a track, curving round to the right, through farmland. Continue straight along this path northwards between the fields, past a number of turnings, until after some distance a track cuts across.

 

Straight ahead you will see a stile leading to a path that runs alongside a horse field. Go over this stile and follow the path over the stile at the other end, where you will enter a housing estate.

 

Follow the road out of the housing estate turning into Lower Bellfield, which will lead you to Coach Hill. Turn right on Coach Hill and continue down to the mini roundabout, where you will need to turn right into Bridge Street. Follow Bridge Street carefully until you see the car park to your right.

Travel directions

From M27 Junction 9 follow signs for the A27. You will quickly reach a large roundabout. Take the turning for the A27 East, towards Fareham. Go straight ahead at the first roundabout.

You will pass a set of traffic lights - get in the right hand lane and follow the right hand turn in a loop around. The second turning off this loop is to Titchfield Village - take this and follow this road which turns left through the village centre (High Street). Continue along High Street until you reach a mini roundabout. Take a left hand turn into Bridge Street. Directly after you cross the canal you will see a turning to the right, off which is a small car park.

Nearest refreshments

There are a number of pubs in Titchfield Village. Turn left onto Bridge Street and then right into High Street at the mini roundabout.
