Walking Past

Walking Past was a Heritage (Lottery) Funded project. Due to COVID-19 the project was paused in 2020, and completed in October 2021.

To find out more about the project please view our Guide to Walking Past.

Our 6 walks are:

Queen Victoria’s Railway (Stoke Road, Crescent Gardens, Green Lane, Foster Gardens)

Diving in to Stanley Park (Diving Museum, Stanley Park, Stokes Bay, Alverstoke Village)

Waterfront North (Gosport TIC, Clarence Marina, Priddy’s Hard, Explosion Museum, High Street)

Waterfront South (Gosport TIC, Haslar Bridge, Submarine Musuem, Trinity Green, High Street)

Forts and Walks (Fort Brockhurst, Monks Wood, The Hardway)

Mottes and Trenches (Alver Valley Country Park, Browndown North)

Our Summer Series of Walking Past walks took place in July/August 2021 at five different locations. Walks also took place during Gosport Heritage Open Days in September 2021.

Due to the success of the walks, as part of Walking for Health, monthly Sunday walks will now follow the Walking Past walks on rotation. Please visit the Gosport Walking for Health website for further details.

Walks will soon be downloadable so that you can go on your own self-led Walking Past walk, hosted by The Outdoor Guide. Check out their website from January 2022 for all the details- you will be able to download and/or print the walks.

Want to know more about the journey of Walking Past? Our display boards explain more about the project, and the locations of the walks. If you would like them to temporarily appear at your venue, please get in contact.
