Albert Road

Street guide, Cosham

A residential street in the eastern part of Cosham, running between the High Street area and the Medina Road neighbourhood. Not to be confused with the more famous Albert Road in Southsea, Cosham's Albert Road is a quiet residential street of Victorian and Edwardian terraced houses. The properties are typical of the area: two-storey terraces with bay windows, slate roofs and small front gardens. The street is narrow, with parking on both sides leaving limited room for traffic. It serves as a useful route for residents moving between the High Street and the eastern parts of the district. The community is mixed, with long-term residents alongside younger renters and first-time buyers.
