Identification note: Hawker was to be associated with Keyhaven for almost 40 years residing for much of each winter in the village. He rented or owned several properties at Keyhaven taking Aubrey House from 11 December 1815, before re-building the property adjacent to The Gun Inn. Known as Keyhaven Cottage for many years, it was renamed Hawker’s Cottage in the early 1950s.
