This Grade II listed building was originally built in the 13th-century when Godfrey de Lucy, Bishop of Winchester, enlarged the fishpond supplying his palace at Bishops Sutton by constructing the Great Weir at Alresford and then replanned New Alresford in the pattern existing today.

[...] As did many towns, over the years Alresford suffered the ravages of a number of fires. During the seventeenth century four serious outbreaks are recorded, the most disastrous occurring in 1689.

[...] Records and photographs concerning the rebuilt church in 1689 are available and give an accurate picture of the building prior to the reconstruction by Sir Arthur Blomfield in 1898.

Coming into New Alresford from the North, just before encountering St John's church in front of you, partially hidden behind some smaller buildings but the Tower well visible, you can stop on Broad Street where there is no shortage of cafes and shops where you can take a break and grab a bite to eat.

A pharmacy is also available on the corner with East Street should you need any medical supplies.
