DescriptionAfter recent extensive restoration, Tudor Merchants Hall has re-opened as Westgate Hall. Once situated in St. Michael's Square where it was the town's fish market and cloth hall. It was dismantled in 1634 and the timbers were then used to construct this lovely building you see today.
It was then used as a store, warehouse and archaeological Store before becoming a venue for conferences, concerts and wedding receptions.
Over the years, it has seen the start of many historic journeys. Henry and his troops off to Agincourt, the Pilgrim Fathers off to a new life in America and the Allied troops off to the Normandy beaches for the D-Day landings and today the start of a new journey of a different kind for you if you chose this historic venue for your ceremony.
