    Tx Alan. Romsey is a nice town and the Abbey is undoubtedly the most significant building in the town. It was closed when I visited, which is why I had to use some stock photos to show the interior. Tx for watching. All the best, Rob

    The art deco theatre is grand, but a little out of place in historic Romsey. A good thing that it is no longer a bingo hall! I had to google to find out how it looks on the inside:)

    Hi Margie. Tx for watching the vid. Romsey is quite an expensive place but it depends what you are comparing it with. Much cheaper than London and surroundings but more expensive than most places in the Midland and the North of England. Hope that helps - check out Rightmove. Best wishes, Rob
