Small museum worth popping up into. Rooftop was closed when I was there so I couldn’t appreciate the views. My favourite parts were the ceiling ‘water’ paintings and prisoner graffiti carved into the stone.

Hidden gem! Lovely friendly staff. Great vide from the roof over Winchester High Street pointing out the historical significance of local landmarks. Great value with the Great Hall ticket

Great to visit and amazing historical value but a bit empty. Definitely recommend buying the pair of ticket, The Great Hall with the Gate as its much more cheaper.
