We take a leisurely drive through the New Forest National Park to historic Winchester, one time capital of ancient Wessex, with a magnificent cathedral. It’s in the Cathedral’s historic Inner Close that we find the super Christmas Market with pretty wooden chalets adorned with interesting, high quality and unique products, many of which cannot be bought on the High Street.
