External Drinking Area

The Kingsland Tavern is one of Southampton's older pubs, having been a pub since the 1820s. The pub occupies a good-sized corner plot, looking out over both St Mary 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 10 minutes from St Mary's Stadium, home of Southampton FC. It is surrounded by retail outlets on St Mary Street and is situated opposite the Kingsland housing estate, near Palmerston Park.

There is a refurbishment planned to improve the external decoration of the pub, improve the look of the trading space and ensure the pub is set up for a great future with the right licensee(s). The refurbishment is subject to full Board approval. All designs are drafts and indicative only, intended to showcase the potential of the pub. The refurbishment will be refined and personalised once a long-term licensee is secured, incorporating their vision for the look and feel of the business.

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. 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 flat-screen TVs and games machines, creating a lively and social atmosphere throughout.

Outside, there is a generously sized drinking area set within the square itself, conveniently accessed via the side door from the trade area.

The private accommodation consists of four bedrooms, a living room, a bathroom and a kitchen.
