Havilland Hall

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Havilland Hall

Havilland Hall is the largest privately owned estate on the island of Guernsey, and lies close to Saint Peter Port.[1]

The current house was built in 1830 for Lt Col Thomas de Havilland.[2][3]

It is home to the British property developer David Rowland, and in 2005, Prince Andrew unveiled a life-size bronze statue there of Rowland smoking a cigar in a "vaguely Churchillian pose".[1]
