Homewell Spring. This is the only one of Havant's springs that is still open to view. It is almost certainly the Haman Funta from which the town takes its name.

The Homewell Spring. The settlement here, almost certainly Roman, and possibly pre-Roman, depended on this spring. Havant was named after it, the name appearing on documents before the Norman conquest, and stemming from "Funta" - a spring. The unusual qualities of the water fostered the growth of the Havant parchment industry that operated near here until 1936.
