Mountbatten Park is set in North Baddesley, a large village just 3 miles to the east of the market town of Romsey and 6 miles to the north of Southampton. In 1086 the Doomsday Book shows Badeslei (as it was called) was a small hamlet valued at £3. One of the village’s most notable events was the Knights of Jerusalem coming to take up residence; they were later known as the Knights Hospitaller who were a medieval order dedicated to the care and protection of Pilgrims and stayed for 400 years. There is still evidence of roads named after them and the former church was re-dedicated to St John the Baptist, their Patron Saint.
Easy access to the M27 and great train links in nearby Romsey makes this a great location for commuters and families who still want to be on the doorstep of the national park.
