Winchester College is home to nationally significant collections of art, archaeology and rare books. A new series of three films, each presented by a teacher at the school, introduces some of the most fascinating artefacts at Winchester:

The misericords of Winchester College Chapel are amongst the finest woodcarvings to survive from medieval England. Nick Townson, a history teacher at the school, uncovers their hidden meanings, explaining the significance of mermaids, shepherds and pelicans.

Film will be available here to watch during the festival and also on our YouTube channel
