About Fencing in Eastleigh

Eastleigh in Hampshire began as a Saxon village called East Leah, meaning a clearing in a forest, first recorded in 932, and remained a modest settlement until the London and Southwestern Railway built a line through it in 1838, prompting the construction of a station then known as Bishopstoke Junction. The town's fortunes were transformed when the railway company opened a carriage and wagon works there in 1891, followed by a large locomotive works in 1910, and after several southern railway companies merged to form the Southern Railway in 1923, Eastleigh became its principal works, designing and building famous locomotive classes including the Lord Nelson, the Schools class and, under engineer Oliver Bulleid from 1937, the Merchant Navy class.
