What is this place?

Can anyone understand what or where this place is, written before Fareham, (Hants)? This is a death in 1839. Thank you Screenshot 2023-12-28 at 10.24.16.png
 
D'oh, I was seeing goat and couldn't get past that.
I think I may have found an answer. But strange to put on an official document

"The Havant area in the late 19th Century was, by and large, not an unhealthy place – despite the lack of mains drainage – but there were areas of slums and deprivation, most notably Somerstown (known locally as Bugs Row)"
 
Fairfield seems to be up in Fareham itself. I'm wondering if it was Somerstown now. 1851 census has Martha Watson b 1795 in Bug's Row, Fareham, although I can't quite pinpoint it
