Cosham in old pictures | Nostalgia
From a visit by a short-lived king to a car carried several hundred yards down the track after a level crossing collision with a goods train, life is rarely dull at Cosham.
The Portsmouth suburb was mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086 along with Drayton, Wymering, Bocheland, Frodington and Copenore.
