The Spring Arts & Heritage Centre (known as the Havant Arts Centre until 2009) is an arts centre in Havant, Hampshire, England. The main building was completed as Havant Town Hall in 1870. It was built by a private company and was a town hall in the sense of being a large hall for public events rather than a council's headquarters. However, the building was subsequently bought by Havant Urban District Council in 1921 and converted to become its meeting place. The adjoining house called Moorlands was bought by the council in 1946 and incorporated into the town hall complex to provide additional office space. The council vacated the town hall in 1977 when new civic offices were opened at Civic Centre Road to the north of the town centre.The vacated town hall was converted into an arts complex. Containing a small theatre (135 seats), the arts centre is used for professional and amateur theatre, music of all kinds, dance, to show films and for community groups to meet. It is a regular performance venue for the following partner groups: Bench Theatre Company, Havant Light Opera, HumDrum Theatre Company, and Havant Dynamo Youth Theatre. It is also the base for the music project charity, Music Fusion (the trading name of Fusion Plus, a Charity Registered in England and Wales no: 1128586). The centre is run by The Spring Arts & Heritage Centre Company (registered in Wales 20888483), which is a Registered Charity. (Registration Number 297353). Funding comes from the state via Hampshire County Council and Havant Borough Council. The centre director from 2003 to 2012 was Amanda O'Reilly. The current centre director is Sophie Fullerlove.

Langston was a small station on the Hayling Island branch. The station along with the rest of the line closed in 1963, and it served the Langstone area of Havant, a former village which had become contiguous with the larger town to its north. The railway companies always used the old spelling "Langston" for the station, in spite of this form not being used by the local community, and it can be seen in many photographs of the station sign.The line itself crossed the sole road on and off Hayling Island, which is now the A3023, with a gated level crossing and wooden platform (upgraded to concrete in 1950). This would cause huge traffic jams during peak hours, especially in summer, since the Island had the closest sandy beach to Portsmouth, and trains ran every fifteen minutes at peak times.The station had no freight facilities (neither did North Hayling, the other intermediate station), however in the Victorian period, there was a slipway for a train ferry to the Isle of Wight immediately south of Langston station. The ferry ran to Bembridge, where there was also a railway station, this being prior to the construction of the pier stations at Portsmouth Harbour and Ryde Pier Head by the LSWR to create a direct rail-ferry link for the Island. The station structure has since been demolished, but one can still walk the route up to Havant station.The stationmaster's house was destroyed by fire in December 2018.
