Expert navigation checkpoint: Shortly after making that right hand turn you will pass a BP petrol
        station on the l.


        Go through a small r/bout and further on str. ahd on to Chesil St, still following the B3330.

        0.6 mi.  At the next r/bout take the 1st l. on to Bridge St. You’ll cross a bridge (on Bridge St!!) over
        the River Itchen and come to a grassed roundabout.  Take the 1st l. on to The Broadway.  The
        statue of King Alfred will be on your r. just after that turn and the stately Guildhall with its clock
        tower will be on your l.  The Tourist Information Centre is in that building.


        Best idea is to get a park near here.  Winchester Cathedral is behind the Guildhall building.

        there is a carpark close to the cathedral.
