Summary: The glueing-construction described in this paper makes use of two generalized quadrangles with a spread in each of them and yields a partial linear space with special properties. We study the conditions under which glueing will give a near hexagon. These near hexagons satisfy the nice property that every two points at distance 2 are contained in a quad. We characterize the class of the $ldquo$glued near hexagons $rdquo$ and give examples, some of which are new near hexagons.
Keywords: spread, generalized quadrangle, near polygon
