Side view of head and shoulders of man made up to look like a mannequin and dressed in standard diving dress.

13-22 September are Heritage Open Days in Gosport and Winchester. Mannequin Man came to visit us both in the museum and in the Great Hall in Winchester where we had a stand for two days. Masquerading as William Walker, the Winchester Cathedral Diver, he had a steady stream of curious visitors … and some playfully ‘shocking’ moments.

If you have not seen mannequin-man before you will enjoy this video of some of the visitors to our stand. 

If you would like to see some more of what he can do, visit his website for more surprising encounters!
