Abbot Reginald's Gateway, Evesham, Worcestershire
The gateway leads into the abbey precincts from the market place. Dating to the 1120's although the timber-framed buildings are of a later date, variously 15th and 16th century. Inside the arch, the original Romanesque/Norman blind arcades of the 1120's can just be seen and the railings guard a drop of about I meter down to the original floor level. The chamber above is thought to be 15th century. Walker Hall on the right dating to the 16th century.
