Details

Journey from St Michaels, the village within the Roman walls, taking in medieval pubs and houses and a 16th century watermill, to Fishpool Street. How did this street, once a major 18th century coaching route, degenerate to a slum and backwater, then become a prime residential area? You will have the opportunity to look at the architecture of some of the 72 listed buildings which range from a manor to workmen’s cottages. Another little gem – find out about puddingstone! Meet outside Verulamium Museum. Please note that the car park at Verulamium Museum can become extremely busy, especially in fine weather, so please allow extra time to park if you are arriving by car.
