Southampton hiriko harresiak ingalaterra hegoaldeko herriaren inguruan eraiki ziren defentsa-egiturak dira. Southampton inguruko erromatar eta anglosaxoien kokalekuak gotorlekuak harresiz edo hobiz gotortu ziren arren, geroko harresiaren jatorrira iritsi zen X. mendean hiria egungo gunera mugitu zutenean. Hiri berri hau ibaiertzek, hobiek eta ibaien eta kostaldeko kurba naturalek defendatu zuten. Normandiarrek Southamptongo gaztelua eraiki zuten baina ez zuten herriaren defentsarik zabalena hobetzeko asmorik egin XIII. mendearen hasierara arte, Southampton-en oparotasuna merkataritza-zentro gisa eta Frantziarekin gatazka izan zenean, ateak eta harrizko hormak eraiki zituzten iparraldeko eta ekialdeko kokalekuaren aldeetan.

Southampton's town walls are a sequence of defensive structures built around the town in southern England. Although earlier Roman and Anglo-Saxon settlements around Southampton had been fortified with walls or ditches, the later walls originate with the move of the town to the current site in the 10th century. This new town was defended by banks, ditches and the natural curve of the river and coastline. The Normans built a castle in Southampton but made no attempts to improve the wider defences of the town until the early 13th century, when Southampton's growing prosperity as a trading centre and conflict with France encouraged the construction of a number of gatehouses and stone walls to the north and east sides of the settlement.

Eduardo III.ak berehalako hobekuntzak egin zituen Southamptongo harresietan, baina 1360. urtera arte ez zen lan handirik egin. Datozen hamarkadetan, herri osoa 2 km-ko (1,25 milia) harrizko horma luzez inguratuta zegoen, 29 dorre eta zortzi ate zituena. Bolborazko armen etorrerarekin 1360 eta 1370. urteetan, Southampton Ingalaterrako lehen herrietako bat izan zen teknologia berriak instalatzen lehendik zegoen gotorlekuetan eta dorre berriak eraikitzen bereziki kanoiak kokatu ahal izateko. Southampton hiriko harresiak funtsezko defentsa garrantzitsua jarraitu zuten izaten XV. mendean zehar, ateak batzuetan hiritarren instalaziorik garrantzitsuenak ziren, herriko udaletxe eta espetxe gisa jarduten baitzuten. XVII. mendearen bukaeran bere garrantzia etengabe gainbehera eta hormak poliki-poliki eraitsi edo egokitu ziren beste erabilera batzuentzat XVIII. Eta XIX. mendeetan zehar. Prozesu hau XX. mendearen hasieran jarraitu zen, gerraosteko urteetan, harresiak Southampton-eko historiaren ezaugarri garrantzitsu gisa aitortu ziren. Behin-behineko kontserbazio-proiektuak izan dira eta hormak orain erakargarri turistiko gisa sustatzen dira.

Southampton's town walls are a sequence of defensive structures built around the town in southern England. Although earlier Roman and Anglo-Saxon settlements around Southampton had been fortified with walls or ditches, the later walls originate with the move of the town to the current site in the 10th century. This new town was defended by banks, ditches and the natural curve of the river and coastline. The Normans built a castle in Southampton but made no attempts to improve the wider defences of the town until the early 13th century, when Southampton's growing prosperity as a trading centre and conflict with France encouraged the construction of a number of gatehouses and stone walls to the north and east sides of the settlement. In 1338 Southampton was raided by French forces; the town's defences proved inadequate, particularly along the quays on the west and south of the city. Edward III ordered some immediate improvements to Southampton's town walls but it was not until the 1360s that substantial work began. Over the coming decades the town was entirely enclosed by a 2 km (1.25-mile) long stone wall, with 29 towers and eight gates. With the advent of gunpowder weapons in the 1360s and 1370s, Southampton was one of the first towns in England to install the new technology to existing fortifications and to build new towers specifically to house cannon. Southampton's town walls remained an important defensive feature during the 15th century, the gatehouses sometimes being used as important civic facilities, including acting as the town's guildhall and housing the town's gaol. From the end of the 17th century their importance steadily declined and the walls were slowly demolished or adapted for other uses throughout the 18th and 19th centuries. This process continued into the early 20th century until, in the post-war years, the walls were recognised as an important historical feature of Southampton. Conservation projects have since occurred and the walls are now promoted as a tourist attraction.
