The Gazebos of Ware
Thanks to East Herts District Council, Ware Society and others, these historic gazebos were restored in the 1980s for all to enjoy as they walk along the River Lea at Ware. Nowhere else in Britain can you find so many gazebos on one short stretch of riverside. In the 1830s there were 25, by 1980 only 10 had survived.
Original built in the 18th and 19th centuries, some before, by innkeepers and other property owners on the High Street, a means of finding peace and quiet away from the hectic bustle of town life.
