Part of Stamford Verse Festival
Welcome to history and poetry in motion! Join Stamford Sights and Secrets Tours and some fantastic local poets, on a 90 minute guided walking tour, that reveals the secrets of those who lived and worked beyond some of Stamford’s doors. Who made a grand entrance, a hasty exit, who came to work on his horse? You’ll be entertained and well-versed as we bring history to life.
