Solent is in English Channel.

Bede. The island [Map] is situated opposite the division between the South Saxons and the Gewisse, being separated from it by a sea, three miles over, which is called Solente. In this narrow sea, the two tides of the ocean, which flow round Britain from the immense northern ocean, daily meet and oppose one another beyond the mouth of the river Homelea, which runs into that narrow sea, from the lands of the Jutes, which belong to the country of the Gewisse; after this meeting and struggling together of the two seas, they return into the ocean from whence they come.
