The Riverside Gazebos of Ware

Nowhere else in Britain can you find so many gazebos along a single riverside. Their origins can be traced back to their construction in the 18th and early 19th centuries, with a few dating from even earlier, in the late 1600s. They were built by innkeepers and other owners of property on the high street, and were intended as a means of finding some peace and quiet away from their hectic lives in town.
