Rowner

Rowner is a small settlement which forms part of the borough of Gosport, on the south coast of Hampshire, England.

[1] Arriving by helicopter on 19th May 2000, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, visited the engineering training centre at HMS Sultan in Rowner, taking the salute from 820 sailors, who were on parade with the Band of the Royal Marines.

These properties eventually passed into the ownership of the local council and Housing Associations, but were largely demolished in the early part of the 21st century during the £145, 000, 000 Rowner Renewal Scheme, which provided hundreds of more modern homes and commercial dwellings.

Commercial premises in Rowner include a Tesco Superstore, a Subway, and that of The Alver Valley Garden Centre.

In 2011, Channel 4 filmed the Tony Robinson's God's And Monster's programme at Little Woodham 17th Century Village.
