seem to have taken their names from those two buildings. Much of this area now lies beneath the Itchen Bridge, its toll booths and control room, though some were destroyed during World War II Ordnance Survey map NC/0317894 of 1870 shows Woolston House at the top of what is now St. Annes Road, at its junction with Portsmouth Road. The same map shows Woolston Coastguard Station in what is now Glen Road. Changes to street names When Woolston was absorbed into Southampton in 1920, there were some duplicated street names. Several street names in Woolston (and Itchen) were changed in 1924 to avoid the consequential confusion. These changes explain some local peculiarities, such as the naming of Milton House in St. Annes Road (previously Milton Road).
