Map of the UK

Redbridge is a ward in the north‑east of Southampton, sitting on the north bank of the River Itchen. The area takes its name from an old red-coloured crossing and today is marked by the nearby Itchen Bridge and good road links into the eastern suburbs and the docks.

The ward mixes suburban housing with pockets of light industry and local retail, and supports a diverse, often family‑orientated community with schools and a community centre. Its riverside location and nearby green spaces offer walks and leisure close to the maritime and commercial activity of the Port of Southampton, giving Redbridge a practical, residential character with clear ties to the city’s economic life.
