Timeline
15:25
Grab a drink at Ye Olde White Harte. This historic pub in the old town has been serving since the 17th century. Go here first to secure a seat and a pint before heading out.
15:50
Walk to Queen's Gardens. This spot sits on the site of the old Queen's Dock and offers an open view toward the west. It is only a short walk from the old town pubs.
16:10
Watch the sun set. In January the sun sets toward the SW, casting golden light across the gardens and the water where the dock once stood. The view is unobstructed and peaceful.
16:30
End the evening at The Covered Market. Wander through the stalls selling local foodstuffs. It is a good place to pick up a late snack or a souvenir before heading home.
Local tip
The walk from the old town pubs to Queen's Gardens is straightforward. Just head east from the historic centre. The market closes early, so check the specific stall hours if you need something specific.
