Southampton Port is one of the busiest commercial ports in the country. Inevitably this has led to the modern waterfront being dominated by the large dock complexes. The maritime nature of Southampton has been one of the main foundations of its prosperity from the Saxon period through to modern day. Southampton is renowned for having been a thriving centre for Medieval and Post Medieval trading, this legacy continues today with high volumes of shipping for commercial and leisure purposes.
