St Marys Road

Street guide, Hayling Island

St Marys Road is a residential street in the southern part of the island, connecting the Mengham area to the streets closer to the seafront. The road is named for St Mary's Church in North Hayling, though the street itself is some distance from the church. Housing along St Marys Road is predominantly inter-war and post-war bungalows and houses, with the characteristic low-rise development that defines much of Hayling's residential areas. The street is quiet, carrying mainly local traffic, and has the settled, residential character of an island community where people know their neighbours. St Marys Road is within walking distance of both the Mengham Road shops and the seafront, making it a convenient address for residents who want access to both.
