Portchester (Castle Street) was designated in 1969 to protect the character and appearance of the village of Portchester including Portchester Castle. Its boundary was extended in 1975 to include an area north of White Hart Lane. Portchester village lies between Fareham and Portsmouth on the flat coastal plain south of Portsdown Hill. The village occupies a promontory of land at the head of Portsmouth Harbour; the castle, which dates from the 3rd century AD, is situated at the end of the promontory beside the shore.
