Waterlooville: Hampshire Suburb Between Portsmouth and the South Downs
Waterlooville takes its name from a pub. The Heroes of Waterloo was built after the 1815 battle, and the settlement that grew around it kept the reference. The town sits six miles north of Portsmouth and four miles south of the South Downs National Park. The population is around 64,000. The town centre on London Road and the Asda/Sainsbury's retail corridor along Maurepas Way form the commercial core. Waterlooville is part of the Havant borough.
The area is suburban and residential, serving largely as a commuter base for Portsmouth and the wider Solent economy. The A3(M) provides fast access south to Portsmouth and north to the M27 and beyond. For adult companionship, Waterlooville is covered by Hampshire Constabulary, the same force that covers Portsmouth, Southampton, and Winchester. The proximity to Portsmouth links the two markets closely.
