Winchester Visit

5 comments


I didn’t take many pics, but we had a really lovely time. Winchester is beautiful. A city of many Mansions! The riverside walk (River Itchen) through the City and along the Water Meadows was wonderful. Evensong in the Cathedral after a guided tour was brilliant, and Dinner at The Bishop On The Bridge was very good! We will definitely return again to this beautiful Hampshire City.

That Wisteria is beautiful. I have walked along by the river but it wasn’t as pretty as your photos when I did. It is a nice town though with plenty to see.

I like Winchester as well, so much to see & do there, but I've not seen the wisteria in flower.

The pub is ideal, did you spot the pub near cathedral, it used to be dripping with flowers during summer

Grandad, do you mean The Old Vine? That is where we stayed.

Yes, Old Vine is where I meant.
Lucky you, I've never been inside, it was always busy when I was looking for a lunchtime spot.
