Remains of Winchester Palace, Clink Street and waterfront is a late medieval episcopal residence located on the south bank of the Thames in Southwark, London. The palace served as the London seat of the Bishops of Winchester from the twelfth century onwards, though the surviving structures primarily date from the thirteenth to seventeenth centuries. The most substantial surviving element is the great hall, recognisable by its distinctive rose window, which remains a prominent feature of the riverside elevation. The site also preserves remains of the medieval waterfront and associated structures, reflecting the palace's importance as both an administrative centre and a location of considerable wealth and influence during the medieval and early modern periods.
