The Bargate



Sender: Duplevista
Duplevista wrote about this historic centrepiece in the city of Southampton called "The Bargate". The Bargate was originally built circa 1180 AD as the main gateway to the medieval city and has held a number of important positions throughout its history. These include being the city’s guildhall (until the 1770’s), the police headquarters during WW2 and now a contemporary art gallery.


I wonder whether the stamp is of The Courtyard Theatre in Stratford-Upon-Avon..
