There is a visiting manager, emergency alarm service in all properties, residents' lounge and guest suite. Parking is to the rear of the development.

Further Information

The service costs cover the management service and each resident contributes quarterly, assessed according to the size of the individual property.

Fort Purbrook, on Portsdown Hill just south of Purbrook, is one of a series of forts (called ‘Palmerston‘s Folly) built in the mid nineteenth century to combat fears of a French invasion. Today you can walk across this chalk ridge and see Fort Widley to the west which is sometimes open. In the Portsmouth naval base dockyard itself are The Royal Naval Museum, HMS Victory and the hull of the Mary Rose.

Facilities : These include visiting manager and emergency alarm service, communal lounge, and guest suite. Parking is to the rear of the development.
