Hythe Pier, Pier in Hythe, England

The 2,100-foot pier extends across Southampton Water, featuring a wooden boardwalk and steel support structures that connect Hythe with Southampton.

The pier commenced operations on January 1, 1881, after construction by engineer J. Wright, who completed the final pile installation on June 29, 1880.

The structure maintains its position as a central transport hub for the community, integrating railway services with ferry transportation across Southampton Water.

Visitors access the pier through public transportation or private vehicles, with parking facilities near the entrance and regular ferry services to Southampton.

The narrow-gauge electric railway, installed in 1922, operates along the pier's southern edge, using locomotives adapted from World War I equipment.
