The Norman Staircase

The Norman Staircase is in the far nothern corner of Green Court. This covered staircase is one of the finest examples of Norman architecture in the city. It was built around 1153 and led to a Poor Pilgrim's Hall, where pilgrims visiting the cathedral could find free lodging. The staircase is now part of King's School. The final cistern of Prior Wibert's water supply once occupied a chamber above the arches.
