In recent years, the Winchester Jewry has been the focus of much scholarly attention. The presence of Licoricia of Winchester and, at different points, members of her family has well covered in the pioneering work of Suzanne Bartlet. Yet, beyond Licoricia’s family, and to a lesser extent people like Abraham Pinche, there has been relatively little work done on Winchester as a centre of Jewish life. This paper will, therefore, examine the presence of Jews at Winchester, a place which Richard of Devizes terms as ‘the Jerusalem of the Jews’!
