The Maze Southampton

Recently there was a new addition to the Southampton landscape. A 9,000 square foot maze made of real hedges took over the Esplanade next to Westquay Shopping Centre.

It was free (how many times can you say that nowadays?) so on what turned out to be the hottest April day in 70 years, we wandered down to have a look.

I think the other half was having far too much fun, after sticking his finger over the lense in most of the pictures, he then decided to make a run and leave me to navigate the maze on my own. It turns out there's quite a few dead ends and wrong turns to take...

After successfully navigating out just before a group of excited schoolchildren, we climbed up to the top of the old walls for a better view.

The Esplanade has been home to some great events recently. At Christmas it housed an ice rink and recently The Festival of Light - I can't wait to see what's here next.

(The Maze at Southampton is on until the 22nd April 2018)
