The Kingsland Tavern is one of Southampton's older pubs, having been a pub since the 1820's. The pub occupies a good sized corner plot, looking out over both St Marys Street and Kingsland Square. Having the fortune of being located in a densely populated area of Southampton, the Kingsland is just a five minute walk from the city centre and under 10 minutes from St Marys Stadium, home of Southampton FC. It is surrounded by retail outlets on St Marys Street and is situated opposite the Kingsland housing estate, near to Palmerston Park.
Pub Layout
The pub is a prominent two-storey property, with its main frontage and entrance located on St Mary’s Street, and a side elevation facing Kingsland Square. Outside, there is a generously sized drinking area set within the square itself, conveniently accessed via the side door from the trade area. Inside, the eye is instantly drawn to the large horseshoe shaped bar, which sits at the heart of the pub. To the left, there is low-level loose seating and a dedicated darts area, with direct access to the external drinking space. To the right, fixed seating runs along the front window, leading on to the ever-popular pool table. The space is enhanced by several flatscreen TVs and games machines, creating a lively and social atmosphere throughout.
On the first floor is the private accommodation consisting of four bedrooms, a living room, bathroom and kitchen.
