A black and white sketch of a street scene with several people walking, some of whom are dressed as ghosts. The buildings on either side of the street are old-fashioned, with shops on the ground floor and windows above. A church spire is visible in the background. The overall mood is slightly eerie and whimsical.

Tips & Advice

  • Arrive at least 10 minutes before the scheduled start time to ensure you don't miss the group, as tours depart promptly.
  • Dress in layers and wear comfortable, sturdy walking shoes, as the tour is entirely outdoors and involves walking.
  • Check your spam and junk folders for email replies within 48 hours, as they sometimes get misdirected.
  • Consider booking in advance, especially for Friday and Saturday nights or during peak season, as tours can fill up.
  • If you're running late, head towards the Abbey and look for Abbey Green by the tree if you can't find the group near the Abbey entrance.
