Havant is a town in the south-east corner of Hampshire, England, between Portsmouth and Chichester. Its borough comprises the town, the resort of Hayling Island, the town of Waterlooville, and the town of Emsworth. Housing and population more than doubled in the 20 years following World War II, a period of major conversion of land from agriculture and woodland to housing across the region following the incendiary bombing of Portsmouth and the Blitz.
