Romsey Abbey and the King John’s House Museum

On Friday 28th January – 33 intrepid explorers from the Discovering Wessex Group went on guided tours of Romsey Abbey and the King John’s House Museum, Romsey.

Despite being the end of January, the weather was bright, dry and mild. This was a car sharing visit and all members stopped off for a coffee in Romsey town, before splitting into two group. One group went to the Abbey first led by Keith. The other group went straight to the museum led by Richard. After a pleasant lunch break the trip continued with the two groups swopping over.  Both locations supplied us with excellent tour guides who showed both groups around the premises and were very knowledgeable, pointing out multiple items of interest.

The visit was voted a success and was much appreciated by all the group members, with many thanks to Richard Tucker for an excellent job of leading the Romsey topic – talk and walk.
