This is the view of the High Street and Broadway from St Giles Hill. You can see the statue of King Alfred, and the Guildhall on the left with the green colour roof, also in the distance the Westgate and the Great Hall (where the orange lights seem to be shining)
thats a beautiful view point. Went there back in june last year with my daughter.. Its really nice up there - http://www.millerswebsite.co.uk/2010/06/27/st-giles-hill/
ReplyDeleteA great view across the city. Here in Leeds I would have to gain access to a tall building and these days you have to get past security people who can only think of reasons why you cannot get access.
ReplyDeleteI like it. So much better than seeing all the cookie-cutter rooftops you get here in the U.S. I like the road winding through the scene.
ReplyDeleteHi David, you're right, it's a great viewpoint over Winchester.
ReplyDeletePaul, that's a major pain, fortunately we are lucky enough to have a hill that can't be cordoned off!
Thanks April!
>Hey you're right they could be chilli peppers, the traditional emblem of...err Mexico? And obviously the Welsh weren't important enough at all!
ReplyDeleteHa! Is that a Spanish-speaking church?!
You have found the perfect place for this interesting and nice shot!
ReplyDeleteDo every city/ town in England have a "High Street"?
What a wonderful view of your city! I love seeing all the different roof lines.
ReplyDeleteA grand view!
ReplyDeleteYes I think virtually every town in England has a High Street!
