Salisbury Audio Tour: From Sacred Spires to Historic Crises

A single stone spire slices through Salisbury’s skyline, but beneath its shadow lies a city layered with secrets and spectacle. This self-guided audio tour invites you to slip beyond the postcard views, unlocking tales of scandal, ambition, and whispered intrigue in the quiet courtyards and manicured lawns most visitors barely notice.

Why did builders risk disaster stacking 404 feet of stone into England’s tallest cathedral spire? What drove a Georgian family to showcase their wedding like a royal event at Mompesson House? And how did forbidden magic and late-night political deals shape the legacy of Arundells?

With every step, follow winding paths where bishops gambled with fate, aristocrats clinked glasses under candlelight, and Prime Ministers faced ghosts both literal and political. Discover Salisbury as a living stage for rebellion, reinvention, and curious corners time forgot.

Ready to chase legends where spires meet sky? Your journey into Salisbury’s hidden heart begins now.
