About this Event
A curious wander through Canterbury central
On this entertaining, enlightening, and fascinating tour, follow your expert guide. If you know where to look, the past still communicates its concealed secrets.
Ever wonder why we say ‘eavesdropping’ or ‘beating the bounds?
Just who or what is Kitty?
Why do these streets have such curious names: Turnagain Lane anybody!
We will discover clues to the City’s past in curios, keeping an eye out for a carved lion with no nose, a Sun burst and a little piece of Becket
Once you have experienced your walk you will be able to say you have:
Discovered the origins of many expressions and street names
Seen some hidden Roman ruins
Walked an Anglo-Saxon Street plan
And so much more!
