This live streaming view is for Southampton ship spotting. The river has international importance and is designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI).

It provides good water quality, extensive beds of submerged plants that act as a refuge for the species. The coarse sediments that are vital for spawning and juvenile development.
