enter the park beside the Minster main entrance and continue through it and out the other end. The views of the Minster from the park are great, and when you emerge at the other end you are at College Street.
This is a fine row of half timered buildings which now house a variety of restaurants and cafes, some with outside seating. This was formerly St. Williams College, built 1453. You can enter through a large doorway into a quadrangle and take a look around.
