The '''B2177''' is a [[List of B roads in Great Britain|B road]] in [[Hampshire]], [[England]]. It starts at the traffic light junction with the B2150 north and the B2150 east in Bedhampton {{nowrap|({{coord|50.8555|-1.0025|type:landmark_region:GB|display=inline|name=B2177 road (eastern end)}})}} and continues to the roundabout where a right turn takes the driver up onto the slopes of [[Portsdown Hill]]. It shortly crosses the [[A3 road|A3(M)]] by a high road bridge and continues for some distance westwards on a mainly straight road past several Napoleonic era forts before turning north west, skirting the village of [[Southwick, Hampshire|Southwick]] going through North Boarhunt before reaching [[Wickham]]. Passing through the town the road heads north through [[Waltham Chase]] until it reaches [[Bishop's Waltham]]. The route then heads north west through Lower Upham, past [[Marwell Wildlife]] before arriving at the roads end, the junction with the [[B3354 road|B3354]] at Fisher's Pond {{nowrap|({{coord|50.9854|-1.3056|type:landmark_region:GB|display=inline|name=B2177 road (western end)}}).}} |
|||
The section from the Portsdown Hill roundabout to Fisher's Pond ([[Colden Common]]) was formerly part of the A333 Winchester to Portsmouth Road. This continued south from Portsdown roundabout to the [[A3 road|A3]] at [[Cosham]], and north from Fisher's Pond through [[Twyford, Hampshire|Twyford]] to the Hockley traffic lights (a notorious bottleneck on the [[A33 road|A33]] Winchester by-pass) and across the [[River Itchen, Hampshire|Itchen]] Water Meadows (route now mainly pedestrianised) to St Cross.<ref>Ordnance Survey One Inch Map Sheet 181 Chichester Rev B 1970; Sheet 168 Winchester Rev A-* 1963</ref> |
