Marchwood was, until about 24 years ago, a small rural village but over the past decade it has grown to a population of more than 5,000, one tenth of whom are between 5 and 11 years.
As well as the Junior School there is an Infant school and several playgroups. All the normal uniformed organisations are available in Marchwood. The Village has quite a few local shops most of which are based around the Village Centre and close by is a doctor's surgery and dentist.
Marchwood has a large Victorian Parish Church and there is a Gospel Church and Community Church that meets in the Village Hall. Marchwood is on the Waterside where container ships can be seen docking in Southampton Container port as can the “Oriana” when she is in port.
Westwards there is easy access to the New Forest, a newly designated National Park, just a couple of miles away. |
