Reviews of Chichele College
"Other than some of the volunteer gardners, the Chichele College building was closed. Accessible most days by obtaining a key or when events are on. The gardens are being restored to how they would have been 100s of years ago. A very peaceful place to sit and think."
"Historic place but not much to see. It needs funding for restoration."
"Peaceful, plenty of space to social distance. We love having picnics here."
"An interesting ruin that belies a little of Higham Ferrers’ heritage. Beautiful grounds sporting an array of flowers. A lovely place to sit and enjoy the peace and quiet. It’s also a pokéstop. And the inside holds art galleries occasionally."
