Weekend Picks: Leicester Magazine Gateway

Leicester: Sunday 26 February 2017, 11am- 3.00pm

Leicester's Magazine Gateway was originally the main gateway of a walled enclosure built in 1400. Its purpose was to give access to an internal religious precinct. Since then, it has had a number of uses including a porter's lodge, a prison and a museum.

This weekend, the rarely seen building will be open to the public and visitors are being invited to explore the ancient architecture, and best of all, it's free!

The guided tour starts at 11am and lasts for around an hour.
