Guildhall, Winchester

Photograph at the Guildhall, Winchester white plaque

The Guildhall was located on this site from 1361 until construction of the Victorian replacement in the Broadway. The existing building dates from 1713 and is adorned by a statue of Queen Anne and the Town Clock - gifts of rival families and political factions. The curfew bell - sounded to indicate closure of the City gates - is housed in the tower and is still rung every night at 8pm.
