About this Event

Take a look at the buildings on Winchester’s High Street in the evening, once all the bustle and crowds have gone. The walk will consider the architecture, the High Street businesses of the past and changes that were planned but didn’t happen.

Join one of Winchester’s professional guides for a 90 minute walking tour, starting at Winchester Visitor Information Centre.

Learn about society, religion and working life. From the site of the vanished East Gate to the remaining Westgate, take in the different styles and hear about the eclectic mix of people and architecture through time. This tour finishes at the “top” of the High Street near the Westgate pub.
