Living in Park Gate
Day to day, Park Gate is a well-connected residential village in the Fareham borough, with its own railway station, its own primary school and Brookfield secondary close by, and the M27 and the coast within easy reach. Here is a sense of everyday life.
Park Gate has the character of a well-connected residential village, its own station with direct London trains, its own primary school, churches, and local parks and recreation grounds, with the amenities of neighbouring Locks Heath (its shopping centre and Waitrose at the Lockswood Centre) close by, and Whiteley, Fareham, Southampton and Portsmouth within reach. The big everyday pluses are the station, the schools and the handy position between the two cities.
Connectivity for working is generally good, superfast and full-fibre broadband reach much of the village, so home and hybrid working is well supported, complemented by the direct trains from the village’s own station and the M27 for office days. The main trade-offs are that it is now largely residential rather than a bustling town centre, local roads can be busy at peak times, and there is a modest flood-risk consideration on low ground towards the Hamble, but for a well-connected village it is a popular and practical choice.

History, heritage & famous connections
Park Gate has a distinctive history rooted in the railway and the strawberry trade. The village grew up around Swanwick station, which, despite its name, sits in Park Gate itself, opened on 2 September 1889 specifically to serve the local strawberry industry. This was the heart of the ‘Strawberry Coast’, and at the peak in 1913 more than 3,000 tons of strawberries a week were sent from the surrounding fields to be distributed from the station, on ‘Strawberry Specials’ that carried the fruit to Covent Garden and across the country. In 1944 Park Gate hosted convoys of Canadian soldiers and tanks preparing for the D-Day landings.
Strawberry distribution finally stopped in 1966, and while fruit and vegetables are still grown in the area, the landscape today is dominated by housing. In the late 1980s Park Gate, with neighbouring Locks Heath, became a growth sector for southern Hampshire, with modern businesses moving to nearby Segensworth. Today it is a well-connected residential village of Fareham, part of the ‘Western Wards’ between Fareham and Southampton, keeping its own station and its strawberry heritage, with the River Hamble to the west and the coast a short way to the south.
