About this Event

Join historian and guide Ian Ronayne from the National Trust for Jersey on this easy walk among the beautiful grounds of Howard Davis Park.

Howard Davis Park is a true gem in the heart of St Helier, offering 25 vergées of stunning public gardens in the town’s eastern quarter. Scattered throughout the park are intriguing monuments and memorials that reflect its rich history, the vision of its benefactor, and key moments in Jersey’s past. Join historian and guide Ian Ronayne for a leisurely walk through these picturesque grounds, as he shares stories of the park’s origins, the figures who shaped its design, the challenges faced during the Occupation, the experiences of internees, and the unique wartime cemetery hidden within.
