Winchester Great Hall 17 November, 1603. The air is alive with the silence of a thousand expectant eyes. Ralegh enters, slowly, walking with a cane, neither proud nor defiant, concealing a limp with a studied control. Ralegh bows to the bench. Then to the jury. The charge is read. So begins the trial of the best hated person in England. A trial that changed history.
This event takes place at The Great Hall, The Castle, Castle Avenue, Winchester SO23 8UJ
