Gosport Heritage Action Zones

Gosport is home to not one, but two Heritage Action Zones.

One is helping to restore the town’s historic character, boost tourism and create jobs. The historic areas that are the focus of the scheme include the Gosport Ramparts and Priddy’s Hard.

The other is Gosport’s High Street Heritage Action Zone which is breathing new life into empty historic buildings to provide housing, shops and community spaces. Gosport’s High Street on the water-front is home to a concentration of 18th and 19th century buildings connected to military and maritime trades and traditions. But sadly vacancy rates are high and some of the historic buildings have seen better days.
