High Street, Winchester
The upper stories are still recognisably middle-aged - like the half-timbered Royal Oak building. The overhanging clock is on Lloyds Bank.

Winchester in a nutshell
Taken from the roof of the 14th century Westgate, the main west-east layout of Winchester, defined since Roman times, can be seen here. The clock is on the old guildhall, with the buttercross underneath and beyond is the narrow street profile at the Pentice. The tall copper-green roof is the new (Victorian) guildhall. The coach is parked adjacent to King Alfred's statue at the east end of the city, with St. John's Hill beyond.

Winchester, the buttercross
There has been a cross on this site since the 14th century. This one, although containing some 15th century elements, was substantially rebuilt by George Gilbert Scott in 1865 in Gothic style. There are four main figures, Alfred the Great, William of Wykeham (founder of Winchester College), Lawrence de Anne (a former Mayor) and (probably) St Amphibulus (a martyr who died in 304 AD and who was the patron of Winchester cathedral before St Swithun). The building to the right is also 15th century.

William Walker meets Laura Ashley
Retaken a few days later, because I was not happy with my previous attempt here Image
William Walker was a diver who is famous for saving Winchester cathedral when, between 1906 and 1911, he spent every day below the east end of the cathedral in cold and dark water carrying out underpinning works. The pub, established in 1860, was subsequently renamed in his honour.
Laura Ashley was a clothing and furnishings designer who set up a chain of shops that are seen in virtually every British town. She is not known to have saved any cathedrals or have had a pub named after her.
