Former tram shelter at Cosham Compound prior to removal for restoration.

The historic tram shelter that was recently removed from Cosham is currently being restored prior to being moved to Gunwharf Quays. Berkeley Commercial would like to provide a display board giving information on the history of the shelter.

To date, very little of the history on the shelter has been discovered but perhaps someone reading this newsletter has some information. Apparently, the shelter was relocated to Cosham in 1948 having previously been sited near the Guildhall.

Can you help? Do you have any recollections of the shelter? If so, please contact John Aldridge, Transport Planner, Portsmouth City Council, Civic Offices, Guildhall Square, PO1 2AX.
