What are the tourist attractions in WINCHESTER that I can visit please?
Basically, I have tried surfing the web about ideas what I can do in Winchester (Hampshire) during the day, as well as boozing, shopping and clubbing. I am interested in various activities, including visits to: museums; historic houses/buildings;and anything else cultural in Winchester only. Please, please, please…any decent ideas any one? (Official postal/Website addresses of the tourist attractions/locations would be welcomed).
Things to see in Winchester:
Winchester Cathedral
The Great Hall and King Arthur’s Round Table
Winchester College
City Museum
The Westgate
The City Mill
Winchester Military Museums
The Hospital of St Cross
Wolvesey Castle
There are also a lot of attractions nearby, but a car will be needed for most.
Plenty of pubs in the City Centre. Some with live bands (Railway Inn & Guildhall Tavern).
For nightclubs, you need to go to Southampton!!!
The cathedral has the longest knave of any English cathedral. Choral Evensong at 3 o clock is worth catching. King Arthur’s round table in the Guildhall……..Britain’s ancient capital is a wonderful place!

I live just outside Winchester.
There arent any clubs there. It’s a bit middle class for all that malarky

on Romsey road 5 – 10 mins walk from town centre are Royal Green Jackets museum, Hussars museum, Gurkhas museum, and Light Infantry museum. In town centre is Cathedral, a very nice park, a statue of King Alfred, nice pedestrianised shopping centre, and that is all I can remember!
