Sweets in Fareham: The Georgian High Street, and What It Never Stocked in Bulk

Fareham had a population of 42,625 at the 2021 census, a market town on Hampshire's Solent coast between Portsmouth and Southampton.

The Georgian High Street

Fareham's High Street is lined with Georgian buildings, a legacy of the town's 18th and 19th century prosperity as a brickmaking centre — Fareham red bricks were used to build the Royal Albert Hall — and as a grower of strawberries and other seasonal fruit shipped out through Fareham Creek. The town appears in the Domesday Book as Ferneham, with a mill recorded at the creek's ford.

Today the High Street's Georgian frontages sit alongside the modern Fareham Shopping Centre, and further out, Cams Hall — a restored Palladian mansion — and Portchester Castle draw visitors into the borough. None of it, old or new, is built around bulk confectionery.

What that leaves out

Georgian shopfronts and a modern precinct cover a browse and a bag, not 3kg bulk bags, vegan-specific ranges or halal-friendly selections put together for an order.

Why Fareham shoppers order online anyway
