Spectacular ceilings, beautiful building, well worth a visit, plenty of information signposts. Mid winter sun through the stained glass windows was exceptionally beautiful. Abbey Gardens also worth a visit.
A walk through these gardens with the squirrels and birds, the ruins of the Abbey, along with the wartime memorial stones gives one a deep sense of history
I really enjoyed my visit to Moyse's Hall, located right on the olde town square. There were exhibits showing a recreation of the medieval town of Bury St. Edmunds including the olde Abbey that is now in ruins on the east side of town. (See the Abbey Gardens) through recreations you can see the town as it once was in all it's ancient glory. It gave me a new perspective of Bury St. Edmunds and I was able to wander and see the pre 15th century buildings in town, perhaps with new facades, but in entering some of them, the olde plaster and lathe of the original building was visible inside...so fascinating to see. Also information showing the olde wall of the town and it's ancient gates still visible. One gate was torn down by the townspeople.
