Havant's Secret Garden (2)
The Gazebo Garden is situated in the centre of Havant, in a car park between East Street and The Pallant. The Gazebo itself was built in the late 18th century – 1779 is stamped on the weather vane – by William Lellyet, whose house was then sited where the present numbers 23 & 24 East Street stand. It would have then looked out over the Manor House and its grounds to open country. At some point it became separated from the main house and by 1982 was on the point of collapse. The Bosmere Hundred Society organised the renovation of the roof and walls of the Gazebo with money donated by Havant residents and businesses, supplemented with grants from The Borough Council, Hampshire County Council & The Monuments Trust. In 1992 The Borough Council completed the repairs and created the garden.
