Jon had a day off work and wanted to head out for the day … but somewhere not to far away. It’s been a while since he visited The Riflemans Museum<\/strong><\/a> in Winchester so headed down south.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Rifles Museum is located slightly further up the hill that the Tower and the Great Hall. It was a quiet day at the museum so we could take our time wandering around and not get in anyone’s way. An added bonus is that tickets are valid for a year so we can revisit at no additional cost.<\/p>\n\n\n

The museum was really interesting. Being a massive fan of Bernard Cornwell’s Sharpe books and television series, he was particularly interested in the Napoleonic Wars. The museum however, focussed on all eras of The Rifles – right up to modern day in Iraq and Afganistan.<\/p>\n\n\n
