About Leigh Park

Leigh Park spreads across the Hampshire landscape, a testament to post-war development. It lies 1.6 km north of Havant (from Havant: bearing 351°T, OS grid SU 711 084). The residential expanses of Leigh Park, born from a need for new housing, now form a significant part of the Havant district, their neat avenues reflecting a particular era's vision of suburban life. Beneath the wide, often cloud-swept skies of the South East, the character of Leigh Park is one of quiet domesticity, where the distant hum of traffic from the A3 and the rustle of leaves in its many green spaces create a unique, understated melody. The wide, open fields that once defined this area have largely given way to homes and gardens, yet a sense of the old countryside still lingers in the air, particularly on those still afternoons when the light takes on a softer, more diffused quality. Though lacking ancient structures, Leigh Park possesses its own modern history, a narrative written in bricks and mortar, in the communal parks and the everyday lives of its inhabitants.
