A Hall & Woodhouse pub on the bank of the River Hamble at Old Bursledon, with a large paved riverside terrace and a covered jetty for visitors arriving by boat. It hosts the informal Big Networking Extravaganza morning meet-ups for small businesses.
- The way in
- Down a steep, narrow stairway from Lands End Road above the pub (or by boat to the covered jetty). The Big Networking Extravaganza meets here from 10am to about 11:45am (25 Nov 2026); entry is £5, free for sponsors, and usually 15–25 businesses come.
